I'm trying to get an X server running on a minimal system built from a
stage3 uclibc tarball. I think I've taken all the necessary steps, but I
keep getting errors like:
Elf_RelocateEntry() Unsupported relocation type 4
Elf_RelocateEntry() Unsupported relocation type 9
Elf_RelocateEntry() Unsupported relocation type 3
...
Symbol _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ from module /usr/lib/modules/fonts/libbitmap.a
is unresolved!
Elf_RelocateEntry() Unsupported relocation type 10
Here's some relevant info:
USE="bitmap-fonts dlloader truetype-fonts type1-fonts uclibc" (have tried
most combinations of all of these - always with uclibc on).
Kernel is 2.6.11-hardened-r15 (All types of binaries are supported - it's
the only thing I can think of that's relevant that could cause these errors).
xorg-x11-6.8.2-r5
I've read some mention of people on this list getting X to work - mind
sharing some wisdom? Do I have any other options in terms of X servers?
(kdrive seems to give the same result, but I'm currently trying again.)
Thanks,

Did you try "-bitmap-fonts"? Looks like your problem is with them...

Yes I have. I'm more concerned about the "Unsupported relocation type"
errors I keep getting. Searching the web hasn't yielded much so I thought
I would try this list.

These errors occur if you try to build X with the elfloader, but also build the modules PIC (Position Independent Code) - the relocation types you mentioned are relevant to PIC, but the elfloader doesn't understand PIC objects. However I don't know how you've ended up with them since you have 'dlloader' in your use flags - that causes X to avoid the elfloader completely, and use the system's standard shared library loader instead.
It's not bitmap-fonts that causes the problem, btw - it just happens that it's the first module loaded by X, so that's the first time the error occurs. If you remove bitmap-fonts, it'll just fall over on the next module.
What do you get when you do:
emerge -pv x11-base/xorg-x11
and what is the output of 'emerge --info'?

hardened / non-hardened stage3?

which ?

binutils version (maybe gcc too) ?
these are relocations related to PIE/PIC ( hardened gcc used? )

bad for you, your build env seems to be broken

uclibc in USE is obsoleted (this was replaced by elibc_uclibc, but does
not have to be added to USE - "autodetected" - )

what kernel headers are installed and if you switched from headers 2.4 to
2.6, have you also rebuilt at least uclibc?

X works, you have a problem generally with your build environment.
a. IIRC the stages are built w/ kernel-headers-2.4, if you want to use
2.6, it would be better to start from stage1 and rebuild everything
b. haven't tested current hardened stage3, but if I would want hardened
uClibc freshly installed, I would also start from a stage1.
To check why I say b. run (consider adding all the dirs from your PATH to
the command below)
file /bin/* /usr/bin/* /sbin/* /usr/sbin/* | grep ELF | grep -v 'shared
object'
The listed files (executables) should all be static binaries, if they are
not, the packages providing those files were not built hardened.

kdrive is obsoleted (at least IMHO), try maybe the modular-X (emerge
xorg-server), package masked.
