What is it failing on? After all, there are a lot of dependancies to
match for Myth compilation.

Best bet'd be to run "apt-get build-dep mythfrontend" which should get
you all the deps needed to build.

The other suggestion is to set up distcc on the xbox and any other
*nix boxen you have (Making sure they all use the same version of gcc
of course) to distribute the work, and speed up compiling massively.
