I'm afraid you'll have to refer to the port-builders about that one.

The "@XYMONHOME@" string exists in the showgraph.sh.DIST file that ships 
with the Xymon source. When compiling, it is replaced with the name of 
the Xymon home-directory - "/usr/local/xymon" or wherever you choose to 
install Xymon.

So if the Xymon port of 4.3.10 results in a "showgraph.sh" with the 
"@XYMONHOME@" string intact, it's a bug in the FreeBSD port.

FreeBSD 7.4 is one of the platforms that has been tested with the 4.3.10 
release, and it works fine - also with graphs - when building it from 
source as described in the "install" document. Here's what I have:

  exec /home/xymon/server/bin/showgraph.cgi $CGI_SHOWGRAPH_OPTS
