BTW, now that I think of it - if you were building on a system installed
with SXCE, you might be able to bring up the server using the #ifdef XSUN
version of the font headers with the libfont installed on the system, by
editing xc/programs/Xserver/Imakefile and changing
       FONTLIBS = -L/usr/lib/xorg -lXfont
to
       FONTLIBS = -L/usr/openwin/server/lib -lfont -ltypesclr -lsunmath

That would only be a temporary solution allowing you to get started on
an SXCE system for your own use, since you do not have a license to
redistribute the libfont or libtypesclr binaries.

I've not tried that though, as my sparc systems have been all reinstalled
with current IPS bits (thus with no Xsun/libfont) and aren't free for
booting back into the old boot environments at the moment.
