That question is more appropriately answered on the xfree86@xxxxxxxxxxx
mailing list.
Now with that out of the way; the answer is that you need to set the
configure flags in the host.def and site.def files. Make sure that you
have thoroughly read the configuration help files to determine what
flags to set for your particular architecture, os, and compiler. I
believe that the build script does not detect gcc3 properly, and also
fails to enable some things for linux kernels above 2.2. All this may
be fixed by setting the proper flags.
For reference, my config/cf/site.def and config/cf/host.def files are
listed below. Use these only as a reference, they may build undesirable
components, disable some desirable ones, and enable things not specific
to your os/architecture.

* *
* SITE-SPECIFIC DEFINITIONS *
* *
* This file contains two halves, one included before the
vendor-specific *
* configuration file (.cf file), and one included after the .cf
file. *
* The before-half should be protected by #ifdef BeforeVendorCF, and
the *
* after-half should be protected by #ifdef
AfterVendorCF. *
* *
* The before-half should only set things that the .cf file depends
on. *
* For the .cf files shipped in this release, the main variables in
this *
* category are HasGcc, HasGcc2, HasCplusplus,
OSMajorVersion, *
* OSMinorVersion, and
OSTeenyVersion. *
* *
* The after-half should contain all other definitions. For
example, *
* place your ProjectRoot definition
here. *
* *
* OS Major and Minor version numbers should be changed directly in
the *
* .cf file, not overridden in
site.def. *
