On a sidenote, I did a pkg_add for Xorg from a place that had it 
compiles for dfly or FreeBSD (can't remember which), after installing I 
noticed that my mouse wheel no longer worked (with the same config file 
I used for XFree86 where it did work). If you could, test mouse wheel 
support whenever you do get it building :)

Thanks!
