I do NOT have the answer to your problem with the compiling. But I do have a question and a couple of simple suggestions. Question. Why are you trying so hard to compile source files for XFree-4.0.1? When ... Suggestion. Why not just download the already prepared XFree-4.0.1 RPMs from Mandrake Cooker? Or... I just received an email from Cheapbytes. They are now taking pre-orders for L-M 7.2. Since the betas of 7.2 contain XFree-4.0.1 I would think that the official release would contain it also.
