I built Xorg a week ago with the most recent versions of all packages. I found 
that libXi-1.6.0 failed to build, because it needed libX11-1.5. This in turn, 
led to the build failure of libXtst and xinput. Additionally, xdpyinfo depends 
on libXtst and also failed.
Upgrading to the development version of libX11 (1.4.99.901) solved everything.

I only built the driver packages I needed (intel and nv), so have not tried to 
build the ones you mention.

When libX11-1.5 gets released I think we can update the Xorg section.
