You can use an X Consortium source tree (R6.1, R6.3), an X Project Team source tree (R6.4), or any XFree86 source tree that corresponds to one of the X Consortium or X Project Team source trees.

Don't send me email telling me you ...know you're on your own, but... It's hard enough to find time to put out these releases, I don't have time for handholding if you choose to disregard this advice. If you don't have a source tree, for whatever reason, plan on using binaries built by someone else. I'm sorry, that's just the way it has to be. Some people have written to me and told me that if you add the following line to the Imakefile: EXTRA_INCLUDES=-I. then you can build it anywhere you want, i.e. outside the R6 source tree. If this works for you, great. If not, see above. To simplify things a bit I've already added this line to the Imakefile. Just uncomment it (by deleting the '#' at the beginning of the line.
