Only the change of RGBDBFILE value is different from the original patch file.
 
Now rebuild, reinstall and rerun.

It would seem that the basic problem is in the configuration
files /usr/local/lib/X11/config/* used by imake and associated 
with xorg version 7.3 and installed here by xorg-cf-files-1.0.2_2 
This could lead to problems with other ports of X applications.

Your attention is appreciated.
