Cool.

I updated CVS tonight (1 December 2002, about 01:00:00 UTC). "make World"
says:

No joy. :-( Poking around in xc/lib/Imakefile, I saw a conditional
with BuildXFixesLibrary, so I added " #define BuildXFixesLibrary No"
to config/cf/host.def and tried "make World" again. Still no joy,
but the breakage is slightly different:
$ make World
[...]

My build tree is a shadow tree created using lndir, if that makes
a difference.
