I'm in the process of updating my system to use gcc 4.3. As part of that, I needed to un-keyword mask libcaca (as per bug #213001). When I got to remerging x11-base/xorg-server-1.5.2, I got the following errors: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../../../include -I../../../hw/kdrive/src -I../../../miext/damage -I../../../miext/shadow -I../../../Xext -I../../../fb -I../../../mi -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -fno-strict-aliasing -D_BSD_SOURCE -DHAS_FCHOWN -DHAS_STICKY_DIR_BIT -DDBUS_API_SUBJECT_TO_CHANGE -I/usr/include/freetype2 -I/usr/include/pixman-1 -I/usr/include/hal -I/usr/include/dbus-1.0 -I/usr/lib64/dbus-1.0/include -I/usr/kerberos/include -I../../../include -I../../../include -I../../../Xext -I../../../composite -I../../../damageext -I../../../xfixes -I../../../Xi -I../../../mi -I../../../miext/shadow -I../../../miext/damage -I../../../render -I../../../randr -I../../../fb -DHAVE_KDRIVE_CONFIG_H -I/usr/include/SDL -D_GNU_SOURCE=1 -D_REENTRANT -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -fno-strict-aliasing -D_BSD_SOURCE -DHAS_FCHOWN -DHAS_STICKY_DIR_BIT -DDBUS_API_SUBJECT_TO_CHANGE -I/usr/include/freetype2 -I/usr/include/pixman-1 -I/usr/include/hal -I/usr/include/dbus-1.0 -I/usr/lib64/dbus-1.0/include -I/usr/kerberos/include -I../../../include -I../../../include -I../../../Xext -I../../../composite -I../../../damageext -I../../../xfixes -I../../../Xi -I../../../mi -I../../../miext/shadow -I../../../miext/damage -I../../../render -I../../../randr -I../../../fb -march=native -O2 -pipe -ftree-vectorize -MT sdl.o -MD -MP -MF .deps/sdl.Tpo -c -o sdl.o sdl.c mv -f .deps/sdl.Tpo .deps/sdl.Po /bin/sh ../../../libtool --tag=CC --mode=link x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -march=native -O2 -pipe -ftree-vectorize -rdynamic -Wl,-O1 -Wl,-z,lazy -o Xsdl sdl.o ../../../dix/libdix.la ../../../hw/kdrive/src/libkdrive.a ../../../hw/kdrive/src/libkdrivestubs.a ../../../config/libconfig.a ../../../fb/libfb.la ../../../mi/libmi.la ../../../fb/libfb.la ../../../mi/libmi.la ../../../xfixes/libxfixes.la ../../../Xext/libXext.la ../../../dbe/libdbe.la ../../../XTrap/libxtrap.la ../../../record/librecord.la ../../../glx/libglx.la ../../../render/librender.la ../../../randr/librandr.la ../../../damageext/libdamageext.la ../../../miext/damage/libdamage.la ../../../miext/shadow/libshadow.la ../../../Xi/libXi.la ../../../xkb/libxkb.la ../../../xkb/libxkbstubs.la ../../../composite/libcomposite.la ../../../dix/libxpstubs.la ../../../os/libos.la ../../../hw/kdrive/linux/liblinux.a ../../../os/libos.la -lXfont -lXau -lfontenc -lpixman-1 -lhal -ldbus-1 -lXdmcp -lm -lrt -lcrypto -lSDL -lpthread -lm -lrt mkdir .libs libtool: link: cannot find the library `/usr/lib64/libcucul.la' or unhandled argument `/usr/lib64/libcucul.la' make[3]: *** [Xsdl] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/x11-base/xorg-server-1.5.2/work/xorg-server-1.5.2/hw/kdrive/sdl' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/x11-base/xorg-server-1.5.2/work/xorg-server-1.5.2/hw/kdrive' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/x11-base/xorg-server-1.5.2/work/xorg-server-1.5.2/hw' make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 * * ERROR: x11-base/xorg-server-1.5.2 failed. * Call stack: * ebuild.sh, line 49: Called src_compile * environment, line 3171: Called x-modular_src_compile * environment, line 3970: Called x-modular_src_make * environment, line 4006: Called die * The specific snippet of code: * emake || die "emake failed" * The die message: * emake failed * * If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant. * A complete build log is located at '/var/tmp/portage/x11-base/xorg-server-1.5.2/temp/build.log'. * The ebuild environment file is located at '/var/tmp/portage/x11-base/xorg-server-1.5.2/temp/environment'. * I checked, and indeed libcaca-0.99_beta16 does not provide a /usr/lib64/libcucul.la file; the only relevant-looking files provided are: /usr/include/cucul.h /usr/lib64/libcucul.so.0.99.0 /usr/lib64/libcucul++.so /usr/lib64/libcucul++.so.0 /usr/lib64/libcucul++.so.0.99.16 /usr/lib64/libcucul.so /usr/lib64/libcucul.so.0 /usr/lib64/libcucul.so.0.99.16 /usr/lib64/pkgconfig/cucul++.pc /usr/lib64/pkgconfig/cucul.pc Should xorg-server be trying to link against one of these?

You should run: revdep-rebuild
That fixed it, thanks. Sorry about the spurious bug report.
*** Bug 244758 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Useful note: If one downgrades from libcaca-0.99_beta16 to libcaca-0.99_beta11, one will need to rebuild libsdl and (possibly; I did these just to be sure) anything you have installed that looks like sdl-*, before you can rebuild xorg-server. revdep-rebuild didn't catch these necessary rebuilds, so I'm posting them here in case someone else finds it useful.
