I checked the relevent documentation: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x-install.html.
First, it appears that there is no built package for either xorg or xorg-minimal available for PowerPC. So, I attempted to build it
Output:
Also tried the minimal version:
and the output:
Why are these files missing? Is it not possible to install X on a PowerPC machine?

This is a meta-port, meaning that it just depends on its subparts of the port.
It won't build and install all the parts until you have typed make install
This port does not ensure things are upgraded; use portmaster if you want to
upgrade X.Org. The "vesa" driver is installed by default. You can choose a
different one by means of the VIDEO_DRIVER parameter. For example:
make install VIDEO_DRIVER=intel
