garnome-0.27.1 build failure on RH9

["Joe Sanders" <jpknights msn com>]

I'm trying to build gnome-2.4 on my RedHat 9 system via garnome-0.27.1, 
however I continue to encounter the following error(s):

I have the base XFree86 version that came with RedHat 9 (plus any updates 
from up2date) installed, specifically packages:
--> rpm -qa | grep XFree
XFree86-xauth-4.3.0-2
XFree86-libs-data-4.3.0-2
XFree86-devel-4.3.0-2
XFree86-libs-4.3.0-2
XFree86-75dpi-fonts-4.3.0-2
XFree86-xfs-4.3.0-2
XFree86-base-fonts-4.3.0-2
XFree86-tools-4.3.0-2
XFree86-Mesa-libGL-4.3.0-2
XFree86-Mesa-libGLU-4.3.0-2
XFree86-Xnest-4.3.0-2
XFree86-truetype-fonts-4.3.0-2
XFree86-twm-4.3.0-2
XFree86-Xvfb-4.3.0-2
XFree86-100dpi-fonts-4.3.0-2
XFree86-font-utils-4.3.0-2
XFree86-4.3.0-2

I have installed the latest nvidia linux driver (4496), and am using 
TwinView for multihead (not sure that matters).  When running xrandr I get 
the following output:
--> xrandr
SZ:    Pixels          Physical       Refresh
*0   2560 x 1024   ( 372mm x 271mm )  *85
1   2176 x 864    ( 372mm x 271mm )   85
2   2048 x 768    ( 372mm x 271mm )   84
Current rotation - normal
Current reflection - none
Rotations possible - normal
Reflections possible - none

I am able to change resolutions by doing "xrandr -s <SZ>" so it appears the 
extension "works".

Thanks in advance for any assistance/suggestions.
