qt3 and x11 libraries

[jjstickel@…]

I recently removed all the xorg ports that I had installed (and all dependents) and reinstalled qt3, allowing xorg dependencies to be pulled in. I did not use the system_x11 variant. Afterward, qt3 applications did not start:

$ /opt/local/bin/assistant 
_X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Cannot connect to non-local host ############
XIO:  fatal IO error 22 (Unknown error: 0) on X server ":0.0"
      after 102 requests (98 known processed) with 0 events remaining.

Apparently, qt3 was linking against system x11 libraries that were not specified as dependencies:

$ otool -L /opt/local/bin/assistant
/opt/local/bin/assistant:
        /usr/lib/libresolv.9.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 369.8.0)

        /usr/lib/libstdc++.6.dylib (compatibility version 7.0.0, current version 7.4.0)
        /usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0)

After installing xorg-libs and re-installing qt3, qt3 applications work (e.g. /opt/local/bin/assistant). It appears there needs to be more xorg lib dependencies stated in the qt3 Portfile.
