xfree86 compile problem

["Andrzej Srubski" <renifer24@tlen.pl>]

I'm trying to install XFree86-4.2.0 and am getting the 
following error:
gcc: ../../lib/font/fontbase.o: No such file or directory
gcc: ../../lib/font/libfontbase.a: No such file or directory

does anyone know which library contains fontbase.o and 
libfontbase.a?

most other error messages gave some some sort of clue as 
to the library it needed (ie pam_auth.h... must need the pam 
devel libs, etc.).  I have installed every devel lib i could think 
of relating to X and fonts and am now at a loss...

thanks.
