It would appear that this was indeed my problem - so far I had pkgsrc
MesaLib, but there was no setting for libdrm and no libdrm package
installed, so MesaLib was using the system libdrm; with the latest
MesaLib upgrade this seems impossible and libdrm must also be from
pkgsrc. With these settings (c/p-ed) I was able to build libdrm and
MesaLib and at the moment am rebuilding the packages which were
dependent on MesaLib.
