Those are likely unrelated to your error and probably ignorable.   If you don't
want to be warned about them don't pass them.

Yes, in Xorg 1.8 --with-fontdir was changed to --with-fontrootdir,
and in Xorg 1.10 --with-dri-driver-path was replaced by use of
pkg-config to read the path from dri.pc.

Do you have libdrm (and the appropriate -devel package) installed?
