I also tried to build modular-xorg, so far it has been a bit of a
disaster with many .pc packages showing as missing, some of them
actually avalable in the built-in X, but not all. Just in case, I cvs

## Sectors 2-13 and getting closer
The bootxx_ffsv2 and bootxx_ext2fs are both 6656 bytes (13 se
x11/pixman installs pkgconf package (confusion between 'pkgsrc'
