Possibly this problem relates to the fact that I do not use udev.

Here is a link that possibly explains this error:

http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.freedesktop.xorg.devel/35490


Examining the Gentoo xorg-server source that is used for this build,
I do not see that this patch has been applied.  Most likely this causes
the error.

I will have report this to the Gentoo bug list.

I would also like to manually apply the patch and then recompile
but I am not sure how to rebuild the digest with a new source.
