 This sounds like the problem is not that it's not there but that the
 builtin version you have is too old for tigervnc. Otherwise it would
 be complaining that the include files aren't found. Except that
 apparently the one in 7.1 isn't too old.
 
 What's the macro? Does it exist in the builtin copy of xtrans in
 /usr/X11R7? Also, is the header file in question linked under
 /usr/pkg/share/x11-links?
 
 And, does the problem go away if you rebuild x11-links?
