x11-libs/libxkbcommon-9999 fails to build. At first i thought it was a temporary problem with git, but according to git log the repository hasn't been touched for weeks. Reproducible: Always

After investigating, upstream knew about this issue, and have fixed it. But the gentoo ebuild still wont work because it uses srcdir!=builddir and this is broken upstream. Is there a way to NOT do this ? The live ebuild is empty and rely on some eclass.. that's where my ability to understand ebuild stops :-(
i confirm it works if doing export AUTOTOOLS_IN_SOURCE_BUILD=1 before emerge... Upstream is aware of the bug and this should be fixed soon. So closing this one.
