The sets that match "x*3" are for native builds of xsrc/xc (XFree86 3.x)
The sets that match "x*4" are for native builds of xsrc/xfree/xc (XFree86 4.x)
Both of these will be deprecated in the near future.

The sets that match "x*[^34]" are for reachover builds from src/x11
of xsrc/xfree/xc (XFree86 4.x).

Possibly.

I don't understand what you're doing to prevent the build from
functioning correctly.

Could you send the output of
	./build.sh [your-build.sh-options] params
?


My laptop is running a very recent build of src & src/x11, built with
	./build.sh -V MKX11=yes release sets

To upgrade the laptop, I extract the following sets to `/':
	base comp games man misc text xbase xcomp xfont xserver

I manually merged the contents of xetc.tgz, and used the following to
apply any necessary changes from etc.tgz:
	mkdir /tmp/foo
	cd /tmp/foo
	pax -zrpe -f /path/to/etc.tgz
	./etc/postinstall -s `pwd` fix
	cd /
	rm -rf /tmp/foo


Cheers,
Luke.
