--- Comment #2 from Adrian Bocaniciu <a.bocaniciu at computer.org> ---
I have verified once more. There are no environment variables that could have
an influence, the xorg-server options are the default.

However, while executing "make", I see:

checking for DGA... no

which I suppose might be the cause.

I do not know what is checked here, if this is a library that should have
already been installed, then this should be either made a dependency of
xorg-server, or "make install" should not try to install the header when
configure has not found the library.


I see 2 ports with "dga" in their names and which might be what configure was
searching:

/usr/ports/x11/libXxf86dga
/usr/ports/x11/xf86dga


>From my experience, this is the most frequent reason for a port to fail on
another computer than that of the maintainer: the maintainer has extra
installed ports which were forgotten as dependencies.
