While installing scrotwm today in a fresh installation of 2.7 (note -
this is before installing xorg), the compilation failed with the error
message below.

#v+
$ sudo prt-get depinst scrotwm
...
gcc -O2 -march=i686 -pipe -Wall -ggdb -D_GNU_SOURCE -I. -DSWM_LIB="/usr/lib/libswmhack.so.0.0" -c -fpic -DPIC swm_hack.c -o swm_hack.so
swm_hack.c:51:27: fatal error: X11/Intrinsic.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
make: *** [swm_hack.so] Error 1
#v-

Installing xorg-libxt fixes the problem, and I wonder: Based on the port
guidelines [1], should xorg-libxt should be listed as a dependency in
the scrotwm Pkgfile? Or should it remain unlisted because (in general)
xorg will be installed before you start installing scrotwm?

Just curious and looking to fix a problem that vexed me for a bit, or at
least document it for future users.

Thanks for the report. It's a bug, the scrotwm port should list xorg-libxt
as a dependency. I'll fix that.

Good to know I didn't miss something simple - thanks!
