First off, thanks to Didier, I am now able to build and run the server.
But then when I try to connect to it from a Windows client the screen is
garbled. I can open an xterm but all the characters are wrong (but the
keyboard functions correctly). If I left click on the background the menu
that pops up is readable, but "blurry". If I drag over the menu then things
become more clear. So something is clearly very wrong.
I have searched through the archives and have found that some others had a
very similar problem, but I could not find the solution in the archives.
Thanks,
--Adam
ps I tried the build with each of the suggestions that Didier made, with the
same results described above.

May be a signed char - unsigned char pb, try
BOOTSTRAPCFLAGS=-fsigned-char, but you're in trouble anyway because.

-------------------
Pb here should be -Dsomething, xfree86 doesn't know about your arch. Try
with something like this (from XFree86 4) in config/cf/linux.cf just
before BEGIN ORL VNC modification
# define LinuxMachineDefines -D__s390__
# define ServerOSDefines XFree86ServerOSDefines -DDDXTIME
-DPART_NET
# define ServerExtraDefines -DGCCUSESGAS XFree86ServerDefines
Or
#define LinuxMachineDefines -D__s390x__
#define ServerOSDefines XFree86ServerOSDefines -DDDXTIME
-DPART_NET
#define ServerExtraDefines -DGCCUSESGAS XFree86ServerDefines
