ImageMagick fails to build for me. I guess it is because I do the
build as root while a different user "owns the display". (I do
use kdm for login and start the build after su in a Konsole.)
        Built just fine for me, about an hour ago, on -CURRENT with no
KDE involved.  OPTIONS screen worked fine.
Thanks. As I said, I tried to build with root while root was not allowed to use the display. Granting root access with 'xhost +local:' or 'setenv XAUTHORITY /usr/home/USER/.Xauthority' fixes the problem. Having to do that was kind of unexpected for me...

Maybe I was just wrong trying this with 'su' as root instead of properly being logged in with 'su -'. Having a DISPLAY=:0 set but being disallowed from using it, may not be expected.

I don't use KDE, but I do use xdm(1), so if I understand correctly, I
have a similar $DISPLAY ownership situation as yours.

ImageMagick just built for me under 6.3-STABLE (also freshly built
today).  (Although I track RELENG_6, RELENG_7, and HEAD daily, I only
build ports under RELENG_6, as that's what I actually mostly use.)

Since only with the last commit to ImageMagick, IMAGEMAGICK_TESTS was turned back on by default, you may have saved OPTIONS with off being reused for the tests.
