As for linux-XFree86-libs, yes.
linux-XFree86-libs-4.3.99.902_7     =   up-to-date with port
I used ldconfig as
per /usr/ports/x11/linux-XFree86-libs/files/pkg-install.in, but I keep
on getting the same error (libXext.so.6: ELF file OS ABI invalid).
Maybe it's because of linux-gtk2? I'm running 2.4.14_3 (port has
2.4.14_4).
