I built it under a.out without trouble about a week ago. Under ELF, it
wants -lcrypt added, as in adding this line to
/usr/ports/x11/scripts/configure:
...
cat $F >> $WRKDIR/xc/config/cf/xf86site.def
+ echo "#define BootstrapCFlags -lcrypt" >> \
+ $WRKDIR/xc/config/cf/xf86site.def
exit 0
How well it runs I do not know; I have way too many things to convert to
ELF before I try.
