Yes it's a pity X11rdp can't be built just using a distro's X headers -
that'd be a nice thing to have...
The beta version of my X11rdp-o-Matic scripts now builds the X source and
X11rdp as packages using checkinstall, so check that out - I mentioned it
in a post to this list yesterday.
It also builds xrdp as a package using checkinstall.
Still some wrinkles to iron out before it comes out of beta - I suggest you
read the link I gave in that announcement as well.

Kev.
