Well, I don't use it any more. But I would very much appreciate patches
that keep the package maintained.
I'd start with updating to the latest version. I took a quick look at the
meson files and at least the first issue seems to be fixed with the latest

random or just disabled by default.

xorg server in embedded projects many years.
