I'm giving it a go building 7.2 myself, and I'm running into my own set of 
problems.  For the moment, I'm trying to reduce the noise in the log file so I 
can figure out what's wrong.

Right now I've got everything untarred, the ./download-tarballs ran without a 
problem (as soon as I made sure I didn't have GNU make before Sun make in my 
path), and I'm building using "buildit -p".

The BUILD_64 parts are blowing up all over the place, since I'm on a 32 bit x86 
host.  The configure scripts get upset that they can't run the test program, 
and demand the "--host" parameter, which isn't really surprising.  There's also 
spots where it SEEMS to be not building the packages because the 64-bit parts 
fail.  And then later parts fail because they're looking for components built 
earlier that aren't installed on the system proper.  (Some spots are linking 
directly against the installed X libs, rather than those in the build tree...)

Should it be trying to build the 64-bit binaries in the first place?
