Add this to your make.conf:
---snip---
WITHOUT_X11=yes
NO_X11=yes        # needed in the past and maybe still needed
---snip---

Recompile every port you need which depends upon the x11 libs (e.g. gd  
and php). Deinstall the x11 ports.

Better would be to put this into make.conf before installing any port,  
this way no x11 libs should be pulled in as a dependency from the  
beginning.

Bye,
Alexander.
