I have a patch in my archive (also attached for easy review) that adds a 
--with-int10={vm86,x86emu,stub} option to configure.  I didn't implement 
the autodetection you mention, but it should be fairly straightforward. 
Also, the patch adds a (simple) check for SYSV_IPC (shmget et al), so 
HAVE_SYSV_IPC gets set and xf86shmget() does something useful.

My archive: debrix--krh--0.1 in http://bitplanet.net/arch/2004

Daniel, did you pull the debrix-input-mouse--krh--0.1 and 
debrix-input-keyboard--krh--0.1 branches yet?  It would be nice to have 
these in an upstream archive.
