Getting nuts with pkgsrc

Hi,

after problems with binary packages (no ogg-support in KDE and crashing KDE) 
I've tried to build KDE from source *the last three days* and get in heavy 
trouble with packages (not-existing files were required). Today, I discovered 
the Wiki page about pkgsrc, deleted my existing pkgsrc installation and set 
it up new, according to the Wiki article.

But I'm unable to build xorg. When I try to build /usr/pkgsrc/meta-pkgs/xorg, 
I get this error message:

When I try to build /usr/pkgsrc/wip/xorg-server (after deleting the previous 
installed x-related packages), I get this error message: 

SchlesisNB# pwd
/usr/pkgsrc/wip/xorg-server
SchlesisNB# bmake install clean

Does anybody have an advice for me to install xorg from source?
