Everything you put in /etc/make.conf should be based on the
make.defaults, or possible things you want enabled.
If X is in make.defaults, add -X to make.conf to disable it. You should
probably add "-X -opengl -gnome -gtk -gtk2 -kde -qt" to /etc/make.conf at
least, that should hopefully fix your issues.
