I have been using Xfree86 because of its continued support for TinyX.
I have tried compiling a recent snapshot, but got errors and the

Any word on a tentative release date for Xfree86 v.4.6?
Nothing's finalised yet, but we're thinking about the sometime in the
next two or three months.
In the meantime, what build issues are you running into? With which
snapshot?
I just had a problem installing the 4.5.99.21 snapshot. The compile
worked fine but the installation failed with an "invalid group utmp"
error when xterm was begin installed. At this point, I think I'm
running a half 4.5.99.21/4.5.0 XFree86 installation on Linux. :)
Attached is my XFree86.0.log after the failed installation attempt.
This log is pointless until the install issues are resolved. It seems likely
you have a filesystem full situation.
