Compiling X is difficult, since some of the first parts of the build
bork when simply using the wrappers. The way around, I found, is in your
host.def, to set the following...
#define LdCmd /System/uClibc/Tools/i386-uclibc-ld
#define CcCmd /System/uClibc/Tools/i386-uclibc-gcc
#ifdef CplusplusCmd
#undef CplusplusCmd
#define CplusplusCmd /System/uClibc/Tools/i386-uclibc-g++
#endif
#define StdIncDir /System/uClibc/include
Where /System/uClibc is where my copy of uClibc is installed.
Make sure that you don't have PATH set to anything exotic, same for you
LDFLAGS and CFLAGS.
Hope this helps.
