That's what I've been thinking ...

My sources were downloaded from this path:
ftp://ftp.xfree86.org/pub/XFree86/4.1.0/source/

For setup, I've alternately tried just doing a 'make World', and putting
definitions into site.def or host.def (what I posted earlier) and making
World. Yes, from the xc directory, yes, as root.

Nothing ... it makes the binaries just fine, they're just broken ^^;
