I want to get emacs-cvs installed on a machine with no X or xorg stuff
installed. I want version 23 for the newly merged multi-tty
functionality. (a way to connect to a running emacs remotely)

When I try to emerge it:
[...]

xfaces.c.text+0x42bb): undefined reference to `FONT_WEIGHT_NAME_NUMERIC'

make: *** [bootstrap] Error 2

* ERROR: app-editors/emacs-cvs-23.0.9999 failed.

* The die message:

[...]

Is that failure related to not having X support libs installed? Or is
really a compiler problem?

The use flags were:
[ebuild N ] app-editors/emacs-cvs-23.0.9999 USE="gpm xpm -X
-Xaw3d -alsa -dbus -gif -gtk -gzip-el -hesiod -jpeg -kerberos
-m17n-lib -motif -png -sound -source -spell -svg -tiff
-toolkit-scroll-bars -xft"

Do I need to change the use flags somehow?
