One other thing I forgot. The generated init script for the initramfs

I noticed that make was also failing, with the message:

Googling around, I found that it wants a directory /usr/X11R6/lib. I had

Good to hear. As it turns out, I uncovered a couple bugs in my script
yesterday, so it might have been broken for you anyway.

You should definitely ensure you have the right driver configured, but

You shouldn't need to do that. If you made that symlink

OK, here's the issue. For whatever reason, gcc is not being told to

Hmm, you can get the sources if you want. In fact, it's better to pull
them from CVS unless you really want the old XFree86-4.3 stuff.
