[waimea] xrender.pc

[Stephen]

xcursor is looking for xrender.pc, not Xrender.so. There's a chance you 
have it installed but your PKG_CONFIG_PATH might not include the 
directory xrender.pc is in.

I'm on FreeBSD 5.2 and mine are spread out in the following dirs:

/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/
/usr/local/libdata/pkgconfig/
(I think there's another one but I can't remember atm.)

I'd do a search for xrender.pc and make sure the location is in your 
package config path.

If you don't find it at all your probably missing the entire thing. 
xrender is part of the xlibs libraries at 
freedesktop.org/software/xlibs. Which I believe is a different library 
from Xrender.
