For some reason XInput.h does not get installed by inputproto-9999. Even though the header is visible via gitweb "http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=users/whot/inputproto;a=tree" it doesn't even appear to get fetched.

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/proto/inputproto/tree/ does not show it. It moved to libXi as I recall.
Indeed, libXi now ships XInput.h. You should be fine if you also use x11-libs/libXi-9999 from the x11 overlay. Thanks
