Installing portupgrade without X.org

[Roman Shakin]

Hey Paul

	From what I remember portupgrade does not use x-libs. But your culprit 
might be ruby or bzip because they are the dependencies for this pkg and 
those might require some kind of x-libs to run. You might want to look 
into the makefiles for each dependency and looking if it's using  X in 
any ways. And seeing there if you can disable it.
