 I just ran in to the same build failure as the original submitter but on a 
 machine running -CURRENT. Since you (rnoland) couldn't reproduce the 
 issue and I've only seen it on one machine out of several I've been 
 updating lately I suspect the problem is likely a missing dependency. I 
 did recently do a pkg_cutleaves run on the machine now having the 
 problem, but not quite recently enough that I remember everything I 
 removed.
 
 Randy, do you recall uninstalling any ports prior to encountering this 
 issue or is your Xorg configuration otherwise customized?
 
 I played around with a Makefile solution and while I was able to 
 get --disable-xprint passed to the configure step it doesn't fix the 
 problem. However, if I do a "make configure" (with or without my patched 
 Makefile) then cd $WRKSRC then manually 
 run "./configure --disable-xprint", a subsequent "make install" from the 
 ports directory builds and installs just fine. So either my ports fu 
 isn't up to snuff or something odd is going on or both.
