This has apparently been a bug for about a year, so it doesn't look like many people are using this on Tiger any more...
It had not been possible until 3 days ago to build xorg-server on PowerPC Tiger because [ticket:29860 mesa had been broken on PowerPC Tiger for quite awhile]. I have not tested on Intel. Hopefully most Intel users have upgraded to at least Snow Leopard since all Intel Macs support it and there's little reason not to do so, but there are definitely PowerPC Macs that do not support Leopard.
Yes, this has prevented me to update xorg-server or xorg-server-devel on PPC Tiger. This week I started to update the Leopard and Tiger software for my PPC hardware ans thought of asking Jeremy how to deactivate the recent MESA version in MacPorts and how to switch to the old working version in order to be able to compile the X server. But then MESA built again... -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/33818#comment:11> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
