The default location in /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth should still work with the
symlink in place.
However, I had a similar problem to yours. Having tracked 7.2 for some time,
I had "X11BASE=${LOCALBASE}" in /etc/make.conf. When building sshd,
LOCALBASE is not defined and X11BASE ends up being the empty string. This
then caused XAUTH_PATH to be set to /bin/xauth which, of course, does not
exist. Removing the statement from /etc/make.conf fixed this -- it isn't
required anymore.
Cheers.

Hi Olivier,
I'm running ssh w/XForwarding for some apps between 2 boxen with xorg 7.2 with
no problem at all. I dont recall touching ssh's config - anyway, the setup
procedure for xorg 7.2 should symlink /usr/X11R6 to /usr/local/ ...maybe you
have that missing?

Lost SSH X1 Forwarding with Xorg 7.2
Hi, A nice *feature* that I just noticed, I apologize if it has been mentionned earlier. xorg 7.2 tends to install all the components in /usr/loca insteal of the traditional /usr/X11R6. But sshd is still expecting xauth to be in /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth; so sshd_config has to be modified to reflect the fact that xauth new path is /usr/local/bin/xauth. So the default /etc/ssh/sshd_config should be adapted to reflect this change...
