Not whole, but a lot of it. There is "Building the modular tree" at
http://www.x.org/wiki/ModularDevelopersGuide, I don't know if it is up
to date though. And better use the latest release instead of 7.2

An alternative is to use the same X release as you have installed on
your system. Then you can install the development packages from your
distribution, and just build the xserver with whatever options you want.
Same for embedded systems if you have something like maemo and scratchbox..
