I'm afraid that I don't really have a concrete answer for you, but I
found two threads that might be of some help to you:

http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2006-June/015852.html

http://people.debian.org/~terpstra/message/20060912.125004.034e1b10.en.html

I don't know if you found those threads previously of if they'll
really be any help to you, but I thought that I'd point them out.  The
first basically seems to say to use the GIT version of libx11 instead
of the CVS version, but it's about 7 months old, so I would have
thought that it would no longer be an issue. On top of that, I would
assume that you're using a version of the files taken from the links
given in CBLFS as opposed to the CVS or GIT versions.

The second thread basically says that it could be a version mismatch.
Now it IS Ubuntu related, so it may not be terribly helpful, but I
think that it's well worth trying an older version of a package or two
if you've been using the newest versions.  Sometimes the newest ones
don't play well together.  If you can figure out which package or
packages don't agree with one another, then you can probably downgrade
one or all involved and be fine.

I'm sorry that I can't be of more help, but I thought that I'd give
what little information I had.  So, my best suggestion would be to
figure out which packages are too new and downgrade them.  Worst comes
to worst, just use the Xorg 7.1 files and don't use any of the newer
versions.

Hi,
    Thanks Jonathan. I am now thinking that it is a version problem. The
second page says about xproto version mismatch. I think that's the culprit.
I downloaded from URL provided on CBLFS page. I have downloaded new version
of all new packages including libX11. (version 1.1 as oppose to version
1.0.1 mentioned on the page.) But it too failed to compile. It was looking
for itself.(It gave me line Looking for X11..... no package <some package
name> (which I am sure have installed) during the configure phase.)
     Any ways. The CBLFS does not include sub-package version. So it is
hard to figure out which package is incompatible with which new/old package.

     Thanks again.
