v4l is there since XFree4.0 days; it wasn't very useful in the old days but now, it enable xawtv to have decent fullscreen mode, i means a real fullscreen mode since newer cards (than can do yuv images scaling) scales the tv images to the full screen size. the drawback is that xv clients cannot connect to X11. eg mplayer will wait until xawtv is stopped (as is something already play sound ...) now, as i said, v4l is only enforced in /etc/X11/XF86config since we've XFree86-4.2 ...
