Hi Saul,
Can we patch this to make it not fail?
I'll try to look into this...

I don't see any libxp failure(I build libxp with MACHINE=qemux86 on an 
X86-64 host). By saying "on x86-64", did you mean "qemux86-64"?

I can build Xiaofeng's xserver-kdrive 1.11.2 fine with util-macro_1.16.
Can we use the new xserver-kdriver and remove the old one?
