Comment (by db.evans at gmail.com):

 Replying to [comment:6 jmr at macports.org]:
 > Those extensions aren't present on 10.5 either, and their absence is the
 reason for using `--disable-compositor`. Thing is, that actually prevents
 compositor.c from being built, for me.

 Looking at the code, these include files are required whether or not
 --disable-compositor is used.  This switch just turns off code in the
 various
 compositor related functions causing them to return a null result.  It
 appears
 that the include files are found in xorg's libXdamage, libXcomposite and
 libXfixes
 which are not current ports but might be done similar to existing xorg-
 libXxxx
 ports.  May be other second level dependencies as well.  Perhaps the
 maintainer
 of the other related ports (bbyer) might want to look at this?
