Clang isn't quite complete for ppc32 (it mostly works, with some
issues, on ppc64, those are being worked out).  For C++11 features, and
better support in general, I'd recommend gcc48.

As for X11 problems, what problems are you having?  Nathan fixed
building WITH_NEW_XORG and has a patch floating around, I believe he
filed a couple PRs on it, too.
