Read the instructions which the port prints out when it installs :-)

See /usr/ports/misc/compat4x/Makefile

post-extract:
        @( ${ECHO} ""; \
           ${ECHO} "******************************************************"; \
           ${ECHO} "To enable the ldconfig of these libraries at boot time"; \
           ${ECHO} "you need to add compat4x_enable=\"yes\" to either"; \
           ${ECHO} "/etc/rc.conf.local or /etc/rc.conf"; \
           ${ECHO} "******************************************************"; \
           ${ECHO} ""; ) > ${WRKDIR}/pkg-message
