problems with several patches

[loic.mahe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hello,

I'm building XFree86 4.6+patches on
a RedHat 7.2 basis (yes, I know this is OLD).
The following patches are causing errors
:

1) 4.6.99.3-4.6.99.4.diff.bz2 : the
xterm binary is not created

There is no install:: line for xterm
in the Makefile.

2) 4.6.99.23-4.6.99.24.diff.bz2 : compilation
error for ftfuncs.c (freetype) :

ftfuncs.c:45:10: #include expects "FILENAME"
or <FILENAME>
ftfuncs.c:46:10: #include expects "FILENAME"
or <FILENAME>
ftfuncs.c:47:10: #include expects "FILENAME"
or <FILENAME>
ftfuncs.c:48:10: #include expects "FILENAME"
or <FILENAME>
ftfuncs.c:49:10: #include expects "FILENAME"
or <FILENAME>
ftfuncs.c:50:10: #include expects "FILENAME"
or <FILENAME>
ftfuncs.c:51:10: #include expects "FILENAME"
or <FILENAME>
ftfuncs.c:52:10: #include expects "FILENAME"
or <FILENAME>

The error seems to come from several
include lines ; here is the first one :
#include FT_FREETYPE_H

FT_FREETYPE_H (and the other macros)
should be expanded to a filename, but doesn't ...

3) 4.6.99.23-4.6.99.24.diff.bz2 : missing
layer.h file

installing driver SDK in programs/Xserver/miext/layer/module...
make[5]: Entering `/home/rpm/BUILD/XFree86-4.6.0/xc/programs/Xserver/miext/layer/module'
install -c liblayer.a /home/rpm/tmp/XFree86-4.6.0-root/usr/X11R6/lib/Server/modules/.
install -c -m 0444 layer.h /home/rpm/tmp/XFree86-4.6.0-root/usr/X11R6/lib/Server/include
install: cannot stat `layer.h': No such
file or directory

In fact, both miext/layer/Makefile and
miext/layer/module/Makefile try to install layer.h
But the file in only in the first directory.
