Unfortunately, as of this morning I'm still running into problems with 
jhbuild...

On FreeBSD, I get as far as building xcb/libxcb...  At that point it complains 
that 'xau' isn't installed.  As far as I can tell, from scrolling backwards, 
there's been no attempt to install xau.  

If I just grab /git/xorg/lib/libXau and build it manually, it does get further 
in the build process (currently on the xserver).

Under Ubuntu, I get to xserver, but it dies due to lack of xres.  Again, I can 
just grab it and build it manually.
