Why not? At the moment, differences between the two are small, but in the future they probably will both have interesting new features. The Ports also offer multiple shells, multiple window managers, ... so why not multiple X-servers? > It seems that most (all?) new development is moving toward X.org > and the XFree86 seems slated for stagnation and obsolescence.

And why would BSD care about a GPL-incompatible licese?
