From "What platforms work with X11_TYPE=native" thread on pkgsrc-users.

Based on the responses I'm going to switch the default X11_TYPE to
be modular, and override in platform/*.mk files as required. The
new values will be:

Changed - from native to modular
- FreeBSD
- FreeMiNT
- Linux

Changed - older versions switched from native to modular
- NetBSD - native for NetBSD-4 and later

Native (unchanged)  - should probably be switched to modular
- AIX
- BSDOS
- IRIX
- Interix
- MirBSD
- UnixWare

Native (unchanged)
- Darwin - for Leopard (10.5) and later
- OpenBSD.mk
- SunOS.mk

Modular (unchanged)
- DragonFly
- HPUX
- Haiku
- OSF1

I'd like to encourage anyone using X11 apps on any platforms other
than NetBSD, Darwin, DragonFly, FreeBSD, Linux, FreeMiNT, HPUX,
Haiku or OSF1 to speak up, whether they are happy with native or
having to set modular.
