port-next68k has suffered from paucity of developer free time for quite
some time -- so yes, it's true.

XFree's "getting better" I think...

I think the reason for it is that (a) we already have it in the tree anyway
and (b) given how many systems can use PeeCee video cards nowadays, it does
make a lot of sense for us to "nudge" XFree4 in the multi-platform direction.

I'd be willing to test it once I have my slab running again. Right now
I guarantee when that will be, but probably in a month give or take a
few weeks.
