Indeed. Mesa CVS won't build without files from Xorg CVS, and Xorg CVS doesn't build because of updates to Mesa shader 48 hrs ago.

Shouldn't Mesa be able to build as a standalone glx-capable libGL?

The GLX proto headers are all that is required from Xorg, otherwise we end up with two copies that can get out of sync with each other.. the GL proto module is very small ....

Also, Xorg should define and document a Mesa version to build against. Commiting new files to Mesa breaks Xorg building. Currently the Xorg modular
wiki page says Mesa CVS is needed to build Xorg CVS.

Then we don't find breakage until some time down the road, CVS is development version, you want stable you build stable branches of Xorg which work against stable Mesa branches..
