Ok, some spelunking would seem to indicate the missing packages (xorg-server xproto xvmc fontsproto libdrm) are from a modular Xorg server. A check on the OBSD ports shows the packages are missing, so I guess this ain't the way to go with OBSD4.1 even if the docs imply it is X.org 6.9/7.0. (FTR OBSD4.2 will include X.org 7.2 which looks like it has the required packages).

So, back to Unichrome and its build failure.  Attached is the compile log.  I found an old post for a similar problem which suggested backing out changeset 335, but this didn't work for me.
