Is this the expected behavior now, or did the new installation miss the
Apple X11 already installed?  Could it have been a path thing?  Was
there a placeholder I needed to "install" to tell macports I already had
X11?

Yes, this is expected behaviour. X had historically been an exception to
the "MacPorts uses its own stuff" rule, for various reasons. Those
reasons no longer apply, so the exception is gone.

Maybe we need to update parts of the guide with this new information. Does one still need to have Apple's X11User and X11SDK installed now?
