When building X410 from the source code, one is asked to
edit the files ./config/cf/linux.cf and ./config/cf/site.def,
and then do the following:

make World
make install

"make World" is designed to continue despite errors, but
"make install" stops after each error.  Some errors
that I encountered was with the file sis_alloc.c, where
four constants with names SIS_IOCTL_* were reported to
be undefined.  These constants are actually defined in another
branch of the source tree, and sis_alloc.c can not reach
that branch.

Of course "make -k install" will succeed and will install
executables and modules that lack "drm" capability and probably
others.

The resulting X server actually works with my S3Trio3D/2X
but without the drm module.  I do not know what breaks, but
X seems to be able to run without it.

Has anybody encountered this compile error?  What did you do to
solve the problem?  Thanks.
