What exactly do you need for your build? As of X.Org 7.0, the xserver
module will install everything needed for building the standalone driver
modules. It might be good if you checked out a 7.0 RC or even CVS
snapshot to see if that's enough for your purposes as well or to work
with upstream to possibly fix that.
