OK, i've updated xorg-server to 1.9.2 (and xterm to 267).

it works fine for me on radeon, but i am less condient on intel
gpu working fine.  i had to comment code that uses no longer
present features in 1.9.2, that the i810 and i830 drivers used,
so i'm very interested in hearing reports on people updating and
using intel gpu.


you *will* need to clean your build tree for at least the xorg
dir, since the drivers need to be clean-built against the new
xorg-server headers.


at this point the only out of date packages in xsrc are
xf86-video-intel (out of date due to kernel drm issues) and
the very recently published libX11 1.4.0.


as usual, please send email or send-pr if you find problems!
