What?!? gentoo is an all-source distribution! What you want to do is get 
their source package, have it apply it's patches, but stop just before 
building. Then, you apply my patches,

	cd ./xfree86_source_tree/xc
	patch -p1 < 999_xinput_add_aiptek_drv.diff

And then start their tool at the 'build' stage.

But, vendors' patches, not knowing what gcc / glibc version everyone was 
at is the reason why I ship this as a "patch distribution."

At present time, the kernel and XFree patches have been sent off to the 
respective maintainers for inclusion in the baseline packages. Which 
will make this the homepage for the GUI tool, and support for all three 
packages (it does no good to "pass the buck" from one driver to the 
other when you've wrote both of them!)
