 It had "shifted?"

 XFree86-4 runs fine on STABLE which, as you say, has no stdint.h.

 Looks like your kernel build was messed up.

 Ah, and this looks like why. You can't do '-DNOCLEAN' between source
 code updates and expect things to work. I'd actually recommend nuking
 the whole object tree,
 
   # rm -rf /usr/obj/usr
 
 I cannot replicate any of the failures. On a CURRENT box, RELENG_4
 builds fine for me.
