Compilation problems

Hi,

When i try to compile Xserver with the xserver-inst.sh script, I get the 
following error. Since I'm not very good at automake/autoconf I woner 
what I should do about it? The file Xdmcpconf.h.in does exists in 
include/X11.

I'm also very interested in helping out with the development of Xserver, 
and I'm currently thinking that there might be some use for Altivec 
enabled code in Xserver, to make blitting with alphachannels much 
faster. Is there something I should keep in mind while digging around in 
the code once I get it to compile? Will it actually be worth the effort?
