Comment 6 Baptiste Daroussin freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2017-01-13 22:02:01 UTC 
The patch is wrong at first glance it should just activate xft via --with-xft rather than patching
Comment 7 Baptiste Daroussin freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2017-01-13 22:25:35 UTC 
I have modified the port to support XFT by default along with other modification/cleanup
