Hello, as reported downstream[1] by me, various xf-86-video-*
packages fail during the compile phase with the following error:
/usr/include/xorg/compiler.h:1412:5: error: impossible register
constraint in 'asm'
The proposed patch at comment 1 works for me. What do you think about?

Subsequent messages of the linked Gentoo bug report and the associated
Gentoo forum make it clear: The built packages do not work.
Your patch is the reason for the non-functional video-mach64 driver.
Look at compiler.h what your patch does; the video-mach64 driver needs
the functions
inb, inw, inl, outb, outw, outl.
The problem with the xorg server also occurred on the Debian project.
Debian has a patch for xserver-xorg-core 1.12.4 which allows to build
the video-mach64 6.9.1 driver on ia64 (without any modification):
- archived Debian bug#685750
(http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=685750).
Also relevant for you is the
- archived Debian bug#686152
(http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=686152).
I assume the patches are also useful for the xorg server 1.13.
I hope it helps.
Regards
Stephan Schreiber
