I have had good luck using Peter's instructions at:
   http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel/2009-August/001826.html

  # Quickstart for those that do not use jhbuild:
   export PREFIX=/opt/xorg
   export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PREFIX/lib
   export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PREFIX/lib/pkgconfig
   export PATH=$PREFIX/bin:$PATH
   export ACLOCAL="aclocal -I $PREFIX/share/aclocal"
   git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/util/modular/ util/modular
   echo "util/macros" > built.modules
   ./util/modular/build.sh --clone -p -f built.modules -r `tail -n 1 built.modu\
les` $PREFIX

  # Re-run the last command until a build succeeds.
  # Cheers,
  #   Peter
