It looks like the 64-bit problem is fixed in 1.2.0, but there are still quite a few warnings.
x11-base/xorg-server-1.1.1-r4 is not in portage anymore; please close this bug, or update if still exist. => CLOSE or TEST-REQUEST
As you wish. I can't update the Summary because I've retired but this is still an issue.

I think 1.4 have more imporant issues than this. I personally have not even been able to start it. Compil was hard, execution bugged very much (I had to manually recompile several drivers), but I never could get X 1.4 working. I had to mask and downgrade. I have asked for Hard Mask against 1.4 and 1.4-r1

I have asked for Hard Mask against 1.4 and 1.4-r1 I've just re-emerged x11-drivers/xf86-input-mouse-1.2.2 and all worked fine.
