Hi,

I just imported version 4.0.3 of XFree86.

There maybe problems now with the Alpha Xserver support.

xsrc/xfree/xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/bsd/bsd_video.c

includes xf86Axp.h for the definition of xf86AXPParams and for a structure
of it.

Someone (Simon?) should take a deeper look at what changed between 4.0.2
and 4.0.3 and fix possible problems.
