Unfortunately, no, it's not the correct. You should submit a patch
against Buildroot, which adds a patch in
package/x11r7/xserver_xorg-server/ that fixes the bug you're seeing.
See http://buildroot.org/downloads/manual/manual.html#patch-policy.
Also, it'd be good to see if this patch has been fixed upstream
already. If it's already fixed upstream, either backport the upstream
patch, or bump the X.org server version used in Buildroot. If not, then
try to submit your patch upstream so that it gets integrated in future
releases of X.org.
Thanks,
Thomas
