Thanks. As I said, I tried to build with root while root was not allowed 
to use the display. Granting root access with 'xhost +local:' or 'setenv 
XAUTHORITY /usr/home/USER/.Xauthority' fixes the problem. Having to do 
that was kind of unexpected for me...

Maybe I was just wrong trying this with 'su' as root instead of properly 
being logged in with 'su -'. Having a DISPLAY=:0 set but being 
disallowed from using it, may not be expected.
