I'm pretty sure that's why others did it that way too. I think it is safe to simplify it to:

#if defined(Lynx) || (defined(SYSV) || defined(SVR4)) && !defined(ACK_ASSEMBLER)
|| defined(__ELF__)

If something does break as a consequence, we (XFree86) will deal with it.

It sounds like the changes required for XFree86 to support elf on FreeBSD aren't a big deal. Would you prefer to just deal with the change yourself when you get an elf system, or is this ongoing discussion helping work out what the change should be?

We've already asked for people to give the ports crew time to work through the elf issues. I think it's reasonable to make the same allowance for XFree86.
