Default uninstall xorg libraries for a server

Hi all,

I have a freebsd 7.0 server, with various xorg libraries (i.e. libXrandr, libFS, libXaw, libXprintAppUtil, libxkbui, etc,. and many others) I do have WITHOUT_X11=yes in make.conf, not sure how all these got installed. I've checked a few of these libraries with "pkg_info -R" and many of them are not required by any other port. This server is a remote server and does not have a monitor, we only log into it via ssh.

Is it safe to just pkg_deinstall these ports? Is there a danger that something might break that prevents us from logging in remotely, or that it will not boot up completely at next restart (planning on 7.1 update, and kernel recompile)

Thanks,
