Dear Dejan,

I've only now had a chance to have a go and while the Server compiles just 
fine (Thanks!!) I get the following error in trying to make the fonts:

> cat tmp/x11-fonts.make-WITH_SETUID_LUIT.log

It seems that it's trying to run the executable ucs2any as a Perl script. I 
note that there is actually a ucs2any.pl in font-utils.

I've since tried a
> make clean
> make
i.e., without the WITH_SETUID_LUIT option but get the same result.

I'd be most grateful for a comments or a suggestion as to how to best fix 
this. (I'm rather new to ports and have even less a clue about how imake 
works).

With many thanks for your help in advance

and best regards,

David.
