We're using Mesa and libdrm from git in Fedora atm, but I also test the
builds with libdrm 2.3.1 release and the Mesa 7.1 release candidate.

If you don't mind reading rpm specfiles:

http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewcvs/rpms/libdrm/F-9/libdrm.spec?view=auto
http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewcvs/rpms/mesa/F-9/mesa.spec?view=auto
http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewcvs/rpms/xorg-x11-server/F-9/xorg-x11-server.spec?view=auto

The mesa build is easily the least pleasant of the lot, though it's
significantly prettier now that the configure script more or less does
what I want.  Note that there _is_ a bootstrapping problem: you need a
libglut around to link most of the demos.  You can get one by doing a
Mesa libs build before building the demos, but the one included in Mesa
is widely considered non-free.
