You have yet another option, which is build vim from svn sources.

If you with to give it a try, the script to build vim from sources is at
http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=1473
"vim7_install.sh : {download + build + install} latest vim7 from svn
sources in 1 command."

It has an advantage that you choose yourself with which GUI to build it.

be a packager's mistake, no ?))

I'm not sure, certainly the .pbi had fonts available and I don't think they came with the package. I'm a bit surprised that GVim doesn't know where to search for fonts, but perhaps Xorg is too new or Gvim doesn't know a lot about freebsd. Perhaps I'll reinstall the .pbi and see what it thinks the guifont or guifontset should be. On the other hand the original problem started with fonts in the pbi version so perhaps I'll just be more confused.

The ports system builds from sources (with some freebsd specific patches applied). Do you know if there are some flags which should be applied for Xorg/KDE etc etc?
