I checked it roughly and didn't spot errors.
Now I greped it and I found an error:
/linux/joystik.h is missing.
The logs are awailable at
ftp://mirjam.informatik.uni-tuebingen.de/pub/xfree/
as I forgot to mention.
I figure that xfree should depend on misc/joystik, or it should not
include joystik support.

Bad, lets see if it happens with the -4 patch as well.

I'm used to programs that stop compiling when hitting an error (unless
I use make -k). Reading the last pages of a 1.7 MB logfile is normally
enough to find the error. One never stops learning.
Thanks for the fast reply.
May the Source be with you.
