compiling debian sources question?

Hi,

I recently bought the cheapbytes debian 2.1 CD's. Almost everything is
OK. Unfortunately the computer I am using at the moment is a mingy P-60.

I decided to recompile my x-server and libraries (with the
'pentium-builder' package installed) in order to eek a bit more speed
out of X.

However, when I have unpacked the x source and diff (revision 11), and
do dbuild,
after many hours, dbuild quits with errors. (the whole error log
is something like 2.5 MB so I have extracted relevant bits :-) )

These are the errors:

Any idea what is going wrong and what I can do about it? Is it to do
with me having pentium-builder installed? without
DEBIAN_ARCHITECTURE=pentium set, it still refuses to build.

The versions of libraries etc. that I have on my system are the standard
slink ones.

cheers for anybody's help,
frankie

P.S. Is it possible to just build one package out of a multi package
source archive? (like e.g. xlib6g and xserver-svga? Part of the reason
it takes so long to build is that it is building the libc5 and assorted
servers (which I don't want) packages.
I HAVE read the man pages + docs about dpkg-deb, build, etc. etc. but
there is a case of a) two much information for me too take in at once,
and b) too many different sets of docs to read. I suppose, given a long
while to read it and ponder it over, I would be able to make sense of
it, but I don't have the time, plus debian-users is just a few
keystrokes away :-)
