There are plenty of "xlibs-dev (<< 4.3)" alternatives in the build-deps.
I suppose you're concerned about the libxext-dev one.

xlibs-dev 4.3 is a transitional package. It depends on libxext-dev,
among others, so if you have xlibs-dev installed, you also have
libxext-dev installed anyway, so the dependency would be satisfied.

Sarge is the stable release, right? Then

http://packages.debian.org/stable/oldlibs/xlibs-dev

and

http://packages.debian.org/stable/libdevel/libxext-dev

shows that libxext-dev does exist in Sarge. The package list on the
official FTP site lists it too. I don't know what you're running, but if
libxext-dev isn't in it, you're certainly not running Sarge.
