Failure in building CVS Emacs [xsettings] and other

[Angelo Graziosi]

The current CVS head fails to build on GNU/Linux Kubuntu 8.04.3 with 
GCC-4.2.4, as follows:

--------------------------------
[...]
/home/angelo/linuxports/emacs/emacs/src/xsettings.c: In function 
‘parse_xft_settings’:
/home/angelo/linuxports/emacs/emacs/src/xsettings.c:318: error: 
‘FC_LCD_NONE’ undeclared (first use in this function)
/home/angelo/linuxports/emacs/emacs/src/xsettings.c:318: error: (Each 
undeclared identifier is reported only once
/home/angelo/linuxports/emacs/emacs/src/xsettings.c:318: error: for each 
function it appears in.)
/home/angelo/linuxports/emacs/emacs/src/xsettings.c:320: error: 
‘FC_LCD_DEFAULT’ undeclared (first use in this function)
make[2]: *** [xsettings.o] Error 1
make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

make[1]: *** [src] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/angelo/linuxports/emacs/build'
make: *** [bootstrap] Error 2
--------------------------------

Instead, it builds on Kubuntu 9.10, but the result does not look very 
good, in my opinion. I have attached the screen shots regarding a 
previous build (on 20091114, without xsettings, I think), called 'good', 
and the current, called 'bad': my opinion is that this has characters 
too light.

Thanks,
Angelo.
