Hi,

When I ran "Compile xorg" in rootless, I a got a fatal compile time
error that may have been similar to this Moved Libraries warning (I
cannot remember exactly).

For some reason some parts of Xorg thought they were being installed
in /home/user/home/user, instead of just /home/user.

I kludged it with a symlink so that /home/user/home/user ->
/home/user, and that allowed me to compile and install.

Here is a specific example:

The libtool archive file
/home/zu20070220/System/Links/Libraries/libXau.la contains the line:

libdir='/home/zu20070220/home/zu20070220/System/Links/Libraries/'

My kludge allowed me to compile Xorg successfully, so I did not try to
find the real cause of the problem - I was hoping someone else might
know more than I do and be able to track down the problem more
efficiently.  I have not yet tried running Xorg, as I am waiting for
KDE to finish compiling.
