You can just do this:
touch /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config/host.def
Our host.def doesn't really have anything in it, so this should work just fine. I will try to release another fix to XFree86-progs tomorrow if an empty host.def takes care of your problem.

Hi Harold,
Thanks for replying so quickly! I upgraded to XFree86-prog 4.3.0-2 and that fixed the problem. However, I am now getting this:
mv -f Makefile Makefile.bak imake -DUseInstalled -I/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config/site.def:44: host.def: No such file or directory /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config/site.def:146: host.def: No such file or directory imake: Exit code 1. Stop.
I can't find a host.def anywhere. Again, I'm afraid I have little idea of the X build system, so I have no idea how to proceed, or whether this is my fault or the package's fault :(. Help would be appreciated.
Thanks again, Damien

Damien,
Huh... this is interesting.
Turns out that Cygwin's tar doesn't work the same as the tar version that is in the XFree86 souce tree in the utils module. I built their "gnu-tar" and used it to build the packages and it did include the /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config directory in the prog package, as it is supposed to. I tried messing with the Xprog-list and Xprog-excl files to get Cygwin's tar to build the archive properly, but it just wouldn't do it. I will be uploading XFree86-prog-4.3.0-2.tar.bz2 shortly.
Thanks for testing,
Harold
