Error building XFree86 4.3.0-0ds2 on sparc

[ilmari@ping.uio.no (Dagfinn Ilmari Mannsåker)]

Hi,

The build of 4.3.0-0ds2 on sparc failed while linking the static,
debuggable X server. The link command was:

    gcc -o XFree86 -g -O0 -ansi -pedantic -Wall -Wpointer-arith

And the error was:

The problem seems to be that afb is not being built on sparc, but other
modules are not stopped from referencing it.
