Whatever you think it's the best. I'd go with mesa/libdrm/few xorg 
drivers exception.

I can understand that. I'll try to build latest SVN when lfs freeze 
happens and check gnome and other stuff I use, thus making those 
packages as "lfs72_checked". As for other packages, I'd just add 
"necesary fixes", and not upgrade them untill start of next development 
book (gnome 3.6 is scheduled somewhere at that point).
