I already have X11 stuff in my TODO list for the musl-enabled system, but now I feel it will just fail without any results with huge error logs. And I already see the X11 stuff in the sabotage tree. Does it builds correctly? At this time I think to take an older X release without some stuff I don't need. X11R7.6 build requires python and weird xml libs for example. Maybe even XFree86 (to test it in qemu for the micro desktop system project).
