I should point out that there is a current issue that I've not had time
to look into just yet:
"There's one minor problem: it's including xorg/xf86Cursor.h from
/usr/include instead of using the file from the compilation tree,
thus I can't pass it through our build-system.
(remove x11-xserver-devel and try to compile it)"
As I say I've not had time to fix this, but obviously it needs to be
fixed otherwise there is a bit of a chicken and egg scenario :)
If someone spots it please feel free to save me the trouble of creating
a patch ;) (I'm kinda rushed right now)
