Without the change I made you can't even build it with a new server. Building with --enable-xi2 requires the xorg-server-dev package (or its -devel equivalent for RPMs) to be present. The build should fail at the configuration stage with a helpful message, not at the compile stage with a cryptic one.

I'm not sure what version is required, but I can guarantee the version specified works.

It is wrong for an upstream package to depend on downstream debian packaging in order to build from source.
