Those are probably fontconfig symbols.

[Christoph.Ender@…]

Possible hotfix: Add the line:

build.args          LIBS=-lfontconfig LDFLAGS=-L/opt/local/lib

to the portfile:

/opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/ports/x11/fvwm2/Portfile

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

They fixed it in 2.6.0. I updated the port to 2.6.3 in r84815.
