I think kbproto already gets put in R_M when XKB is enabled.  The issue
was probably that Debian has an old XKBsrv.h, so you were seeing that
error because it just needs to be updated.  That being said, we should
probably make the dependency versioned.

Okay.  You need to find the file that includes <X11/Xtrans/transport.c>
(usually xstrans or so), and make sure it includes your config.h, which
should have stuff like UNIXCONN defined.  Although this should just be
happening in the DIX.

I think that was Søren Sandmann Pedersen.
