It is easy to build!.. I really don't see why people are struggling so
much with it! Here: it took me a couple of hours to write a script
that goes through the categories building each package based on these:

cats="proto doc util lib_stage_1 data_stage_1 lib_stage_2 xcb app
data_stage_2 xserver driver font"

phony_cats="xcb"

I would happily post the whole script if people want me to but I will
need need to untie it from site specific build script...
