Definitely XF86_Mach64.  The installer is deciding to install XF86_Mach64
and setup a link to it, even though it shouldn't even be installing and 3.3
packages.

Now, I was able to fix the link myself, but I wasn't able to use the
generated XF86config.  I had to run xf86config.  So, after fiddling around,
I did get XFree 4 to run, although 3D acceleration still wasn't working.

However, my main point in posting was to resolve the installation
difficulties, not the runtime ones.  I expect to be installing Mandrake 7.2
multiple times on multiple systems, so I want a clean install.  :)
