1. Packages are (typically) built from ports; the only exceptions being 
the system packages (base, src, usr.sbin, etc).
2. The /usr/X11R6 path / $X11BASE (sp?) variable was deprecated in favor 
of using $LOCALBASE (sp?) when the X.org 7.2 update rolled around about 
4 months ago.
3. Like I said, /usr/ports/UPDATING contains all of the details you need 
about the changes. If you need more information please consult the 
archives back in April/May.
