FTBFS of xfree86_4.3.0-0ds4v3 on x86/sid

[Bill Allombert <allomber@math.u-bordeaux.fr>]

Hello,

I have attempted to build from source on current sid on a x86
Daniel Stone experiemntal package xfree86_4.3.0-0ds4v3 at
http://penguinppc.org/~daniels/sid/source/
but this fails miserably.

1)
$ debuild -us -uc
...
# make sure all the patches applied cleanly
debian/stampdir/patches/000_stolen_from_HEAD_int10.diff.log:Hunk #3 succeeded at 432 with fuzz 2.
Some patches did not apply cleanly.  Please investigate.
make: *** [debian/stampdir/build] Erreur 1

2) line 584 of debian/rules
        for DIR in config extras include util \
                   lib/GL lib/Xau lib/Xdmcp lib/font lib/xkbfile lib/xtrans \
                   programs/Xserver; do \
          mkdir -p $(SOURCE_TREE)-xserver-xfree86-dbg/$$DIR); \
                                                          ^^^
          cp -drs $(SOURCE_TREE)/$$DIR $(SOURCE_TREE)-xserver-xfree86-dbg/$$DIR; \
        done
This look like an extraneous parents.

3) if I override the first check, the build fails in
build-tree/xc/programs/Xserver/dix

Cheers,
