 After nearly four years, I've finally had opportunity to test the target
 machine of this PR again.  In that time, changes to i915drmkms and/or
 Xorg/intel driver seem to have overcome this problem (9.99.59).  The
 target machine seems to run Xorg without issues, no "xorg.conf" needed.
 If one wants intel XvMC enabled, an "xorg.conf" file will be required.
 
 The only mention of any acceleration for the device is:
 
   composite (RENDER acceleration)
 
 
 I'll try again after the next build of -current but it looks like this
 PR may finally be closed.
