The fact that it does stop here seems to indicate that the module
loader is failing. Does Gentoo Linux has some kind of non executable
heap protection ?
In this case, there are a few
#if defined(linux) && defined(__ia64__) || defined(__OpenBSD__)
in xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/loader/elfloader.c that need to be
changed into '#if defined(linux) || defined(__OpenBSD__)' or just
removed (the conditional, not the code that calls mprotect()).
