Build failure for mkfontscale.c

While trying to compile the latest xorg (6.8.2),the wrong messages came with the compiling failed.

In function `doDirectory':
mkfontscale.c:858: `BDF_PropertyRec' undeclared (first use in this function)
mkfontscale.c:858: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
mkfontscale.c:858: for each function it appears in.)
mkfontscale.c:858: parse error before "prop"
mkfontscale.c:859: warning: implicit declaration of function`FT_Get_BDF_Property'
mkfontscale.c:859: `prop' undeclared (first use in this function)
mkfontscale.c:860: `BDF_PROPERTY_TYPE_ATOM' undeclared (first use in this function)

is there any one can tell me how to fix it? i have googled but found nothing that useful for me. thanks so much.

you need to go up a little farther above "In function `doDirectory':" probably another 15-20 lines
