I've just followed Smuj suggestions, and I created a patched version of the xorg sources for ubuntu, uploaded it on my ppa, and it compiled!!

So, if you suffer for this bug, you have precise (ubuntu 12.04) installed, and you are willing to trust me :-), you can add the ppa:supernaicol/xorg to your package sources, then do a full upgrade, and the problem should be solved; for information on the procedure, follow the instructions on https://launchpad.net/~supernaicol/+archive/xorg

Note: the version of the xorg packages is derived from the quantal version, so it supersedes all the versions in precise and precise-proposed.

I hope i can keep it updated in the future, for the moment enjoy it!
