Hi Kyle.

I think Mel has hit on the answer here. Pango is being built without X 
support.

I had this exact error myself. A few libraries [Pango, Cairo etc] 
weren't allowing themselves to be built on. Turns out I had in my 
/etc/make.conf the lines

NO_X=true
WITHOUT_X11=true

to speed up "make buildworld". Then I installed X from packages on this 
machine. A bit later I tried to build Firefox... took me a week to 
figure it out.

In summary, just comment out any "NO_X" and "WITHOUT_X11" lines in the 
locations Mel suggested. Then remove, rebuild and reinstall Pango. After 
that's done Firefox should build properly.
