/usr/X11/bin/Xorg should be very small - it just checks if you're running
the 32-bit or 64-bit kernel and runs either /usr/X11/bin/i386/Xorg or
/usr/X11/bin/amd64/Xorg as appropriate.

It sounds however, like your copy of /usr/X11/bin/amd64/Xorg has become
corrupted - it should be about 2.3 Mb, not very small - which could be a
bug that people have reported to pkg-discuss last week with incomplete
files being downloaded when updating from the pkg repos.
