[Buildroot] building tiny-x or x11R7 with latest snapshot

Hello all,

I managed to build cairo, pango and gtk2 but with dependency on DirectFB - I need
to modify flags to configure and dependencies. TinyX is buildable but seems only
gtk-1.2 run on top of it. Xorg-7.2 and X11-R6 are not buildable and require a lot of hands work.

BR,
Ivan
