I think keithp just did the conversion of libXt himself when he needed
it, not remembering that you had done it.  I hadn't looked at your code
yet for integrating it (and making you a committer) since I didn't know
what the proper fix for Xalloca.h was.

Once finals are over (week from now) I should be able to look over
whatever you have ready.
