The build error looks like one that I encountered in working on 6.9 that I
wasn't able to resolve. There's a file that's created on the fly by the
makefile which is not created when we only build the server for
xserver-xorg-dbg. This causes the build to fail because the file isn't
present. I opted, on Michael's recommendation, to go for a totally
different method of building the -dbg package instead of actually solving
the problem, but that's really not an option for 6.8 right now. 

I'm currently building -6 packages right now without this change. I know
you put in a fair amount of work in to this, so I don't want to just kick
the change out, but I need to keep Xorg moving in to testing, so the fix
for #321641 really needs to go in soon. I won't upload my current packages
right away, so as to give you a chance to figure this one out, but it's
probably more worthwhile to put our efforts in to pushing through the last
parts of the 6.9 packaging instead of fighting with backported drivers. Let
me know what you think.
