>Description:
If you have an xsrc directory, like /usr/xsrc, but it's a mount point for a file system and the file system isn't mounted, build.sh with MKX11=yes gets halfway through tools before failing in a very confusing way:

nbmake: don't know how to make makestrs.c. Stop
>How-To-Repeat:
1. create a /usr/xsrc mount point but forget to mount it
2. build.sh with MKX11=yes (or -x)
>Fix:
Teach build.sh to test for a file in xsrc, not just for an xsrc directory, early on.
