I have had problems in the past with 'xorg' also. The latest version of
the server is 'xorg-server-6.8.2_6'

You might try doing a make clean in the
/usr/ports/x11-servers/xorg-server directory and then deleting any files
in the /usr/ports/distfiles directory. Conversely, you could also run
'portsclean -C -D -L to clean up any extraneous garbage. I would now
update your ports to be sure you have the latest version and then try
installing 'xorg-server' again.
