Comment 2 Donnie Berkholz (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-07-21 14:08:33 UTC
This was resolved in revision 1.36 of the ebuild Thu Jul 17 23:46:12 2003 UTC (3 days, 21 hours ago), please see:
http://www.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/gentoo-x86/x11-base/xfree/xfree-4.3.0-r3.ebuild

If you have revision 1.36 or higher and it still fails, let me know, as it patches fine here.
