there are problems with malloc function. For examle: 

XFree86 3.3.6 is several years old. It probably must be compiled with
the gcc version that was current at that time. New gcc versions often
enforce language rules more strictly and break old programs that don't
conform.
Both gcc 2.7.2 and 2.95 are available in Etch (aptitude install gcc272
gcc-2.95). Probably one of those will do.
