>Description:
The port mrxvt-devel is no longer compiled with the --enable-xft option by default.  This is a change from past ports where this was enabled.  This disables freetype font support in mrxvt and will cause anyone who upgrades to have broken fonts.   
 
OPTIONS=    XFT "Enable Xft support for fonts" Off \

[root at yogsothoth mrxvt-devel]# pkg_info|grep mrxvt

>How-To-Repeat:
Upgrade from an older port of mrxvt-devel to 0.5.4_5
>Fix:
Change the option in the Makefile of the port to 

OPTIONS=    XFT "Enable Xft support for fonts" On \
