The hosts.def file in Xorg has:

Perhaps we should just uncomment this #define in the book.  I do
uncomment it in my installs.

Yes, that's an excellent idea. I build xorg and XFree68 that way.

Also, I note that this #define is not mentioned in XFree86, but I havn't
built that for al loong time.

The switch works for XFree86 too.

Also, I have asked in the past but want to bring it up again not that it
appears that some changes are needed:  Is it time to drop xfree86?  I
don't want to install it to check out changes.  Is there an editor who does?

I build LFS using glibc-cvs and XFree86 will not compile against current glibc. 
It did, until about a month ago and it should compile on one of the stable 
glibc tarballs.
