Net/pkgsrc has an X11BASE also, and like Free if you install X as distribution 
it goes there. They have a xpkgwedge pkg to keep X related pkgs from being 
installed to /usr/X11R6 though:

http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/pkgsrc/pkgtools/xpkgwedge/

We can probably do the same, but there's probably a reason why "our" X people 
haven't done so. Isn't xorg going to ditch imake soon anyhow?

Me neither, but I think that wouldn't work right on FreeBSD.
