Are there any experienced users here who could adapt the ctwm port in
gentoo so that it will be ready for the move to the module XOrg in the
near future? I see that ctwm is still on the "broken" list:

I haven't even got the modular Xorg to work and I have tried on three
different arches (x86 ppc sparc). I really wouldn't spend to much thought
yet on the modular Xorg in Gentoo, it's still masked outover that is's
marked as unstable. There are ebuilds that should be automatically emerge
and still don't, you need to do that manually after you have installed the
modular Xorg.
Something that has surprised me is that Gentoo don't give people the
option to use the monolithic Xorg 6.9.
Just that ctwm is on the list, don't really mean much IMHO, it most likely
just a dependency that is missing to some libX* and I think if you are
sure you have all needed things installed, you will be able to emerge ctwm
without any problems with -nodeps option.
