I have resolved this problem I think by referring to the Xorg cross |
| 15 |
compilation guide. It seems I need to pass --enable-malloc0returnsnull to |
| 16 |
configure, set CC_FOR_BUILD and apply a few patches. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
This appears to indicate though that cross compiling Xorg is not really |
| 19 |
supported under gentoo? Presumably this would be done when the 'cross' USE |
| 20 |
flag is set otherwise? Is this the case or am I missing something obvious ? |

This though despite much searching I can't seem to find out what I |
| 31 |
should(the proper way) do to make these header files available to the cross |
| 32 |
compiler ? |
