This is a hack to see if the error is in xtv-1.03_2:

try: 
ln -sv /usr/local/lib/libXaw3d.so.8 /usr/local/lib/Xaw3d.8

If that works then xtv-1.03_2 is looking for the wrong
library name and you should notify the maintainer. To
get the maintainer cd to xtv-1.03_2's /usr/ports's dir
and run make maintainer.

To clean up the above hack:

rm -f /usr/local/lib/Xaw3d.8
