I'll pass on building for now then... :^)

Here's where I stand at the moment:

I copied /opt/QtPalmtop/lib/xmms/.xmms to /home/root/.xmms and I am able to 
run xmms as root from console, both local or through ssh.

However, playback is garbled.  Takes roughly twice as long, and it's very 
'choppy'.  I've recorded a sample (3mb wav) to demonstrate, posted at:
http://live.newkirk.us/recording02.wav - that's Led Zeppelin, Kashmir, but
it's hard to recognize.  As a 'control', the Zaurus Media Player bundled 
with the 5600 (along with the vorbis codec plugin) plays fine.

This is with both vorbis and wav playback, haven't tried mp3 but would 
expect the same problem.

If I try to run as user zaurus from console (after copying /home/root/.xmms 
to /home/zaurus/.xmms and changing ownership) it appears to work (IE console 
messages ok, does not exit) but it does not open the GUI.  I tried "chmod 
ugo+rwx" for all associated files, no difference.

For now I'll concentrate on getting playback from root console launch, and
work on user zaurus issues later.

If you can listen to the sample recording and see if you can understand 
what it is doing I would appreciate it.
