Is there a way for me to do something like:

path:lib/pkgconfig/x11.pc:xorg-libX11

but have that dependency satisfied by /usr/X11/lib/pkgconfig/ x11.pc ?

You can use "${x11prefix}/lib/pkgconfig/x11.pc",

Actually I'm told you currently can't because variables are not expanded
in depspecs.

http://trac.macports.org/ticket/17182

Technically that only seems to be the case for $prefix - but expanding $x11prefix at indexing time is wrong anyway. Yet, it may do just what
you want in this particular case.

either way, that's still checking that it's in ${x11prefix} only and
doesn't let the macports one satisfy it =/

The dependency is satisfied if the named port is installed, regardless
of whether it actually provides the specified file.

So in this case you would depend on

path:/usr/X11/lib/pkgconfig/x11.pc:xorg-libX11

If /usr/X11/lib/pxkgconfig.x11.pc exists that will satisfy (would be the case on Leopard and later), and if not, then port xorg-libX11 will be installed (for Tiger and earlier).

Once variables are expanded in depspecs, you could change /usr/X11 to ${x11prefix}.
