Since you're building on 4.7 (and the only supported version of -STABLE is 
4.10) your basic problem is that mono is not going to work.  I strongly 
recommend that you follow the instructions in /usr/src/UPDATING and update 
your system to at least 4.10-STABLE.  There is absolutely no good reason to 
stay with 4.7, and 4.10 is a considerable improvement in many respects.

Also, it is policy (see the "Porter's Handbook") that the only supported 
versions of FreeBSD for ports are the most recent -STABLE and -CURRENT.  
Support for obsolete versions of FreeBSD is simply beyond the means of most 
maintainers (it's difficult enough for me with -STABLE and -CURRENT--I'd need 
a dozen separate systems to debug each and every port I maintain back to the 
first version of FreeBSD I used (4.0).

As to porting XSP and mod_mono to FreeBSD--that is in the works.  I'm not very 
productive right now as I'm in the throws of relocating to a new job in a 
different part of the country.  But it is high on my list of priorities.
