Thanks for the help.  It allowed me to run the server.  The problem was a 
result of my not including the libtool macros with:
setenv ACLOCAL "aclocal -I /usr/local/share/aclocal"

There appears to be a number of other problems with building the code out of 
the box.  Here is my current list:

1) Script git_xorg doesn't pull xserver, font and xcb files.  Modified script 
to pull/update files.
2) Xcb doesn't build (needs gnome?).  Used "setenv USE_XCB NO" for now.
3) Apps rendercheck and xdriinfo don't build.
4) A number of other apps aren't in the build script.
5) A number of video drivers don't build.  Many of them due to missing GL 
headers.  Copying in the headers allowed many of them to build.
6) Xkbdata doesn't build (missing?).
7) Fonts arabic-misc and mutt-misc don't build.  Added empty README files.
8) Mesa current doesn't build (multiple problems?).
9) A lot of freebsd and mesa scripts are hardcoded with /usr/X11R6 requiring 
additional work to have multiple builds.
