I wouldn't bother; it's in
http://ftp.linux.org.uk/pub/linux/arm/fedora/pub/fedora/linux/releases/8/Everything/arm/os/Packages/libXtst*

It is looking in the sysroot directories first, but libXtst is missing.

As far as I know the XTest Extension (libXtst) XServer support
should only be required if you're using --enable-java-awt=gtk.
Maybe someone familiar with the AWT peers can help.
