OK, in more detail:

- I now have stuff installed in
  /usr/lib64/{config,etc,getconfig,modules,xkb} ... for some reasons
  that I cannot pinpoint and/or articulate, these bother me.
- Without the "font-server" use flag (correct me if I'm wrong), ttmkfdir
  is not installed; Do I really not need it even for a no-font-server
  installation?
- No idea why, but /usr/X11R6/lib64/X11/xkb is now a symlink that points
  to ../../lib/xkb, which means that it essentially points to itself
  (/usr/X11R6/lib points to lib64).  This could be related to the fact
  that I now installed after first removing /usr/X11R6 ( "emerge -C
  xorg-x11" and all packages that owned /usr/X11R6 save for baselayout
  and groff, and then move /usr/X11R6 away), but the binary package I
  built on a system that had xorg -r3.

I'm off to school in an hour, so I'll leave -r4 compiling on a clean (no
/usr/X11R6) system to see if at least the xkb symlink starts pointing to
a proper location.
