When you configured/compiled/installed libdrm, where did it go?  I.e. 
did you use ./autogen.sh with the --prefix option?

If you run 'pkg-config --libs libdrm' what does it say?

I'm guessing that libdrm was installed in /usr/local so your package 
config path will need to include /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/

It's probably simplest to go into lib/libdrm and do './autogen.sh 
--prefix=/tmp/modular ; make install' to put libdrm in the same location 
as the rest of your X build.

You could try 'export 
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/tmp/modular/lib/pkgconfig/:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/' 
before ./autogen.sh --prefix=/tmp/modular in xserver/, if you want to 
build by hand.

I think this is a side-effect of your X server not building/installing 
all the way.
