Hm. It's very likely the case that it's been quite some time
since anyone tried building in-tree X11 this way, let alone on
alpha.

However, the code builds, and cross-builds, just fine via the
src/x11 build infrastructure, and build.sh with MKX11=3Dyes.
Autobuilds and releases are done this way all the time.

That should at least get you to your next hurdle/hose.
