That dependency on the drivers can be broken by having any one driver
installed, it merely depends on -all by default. In this sense, it behaves
exactly as before. And since it's vastly easier at present to separate the
xserver config scripts from the server itself, I'm willing to live with
this one circular dep since it fixes a real bug. afaik, we haven't seen any
actual problems with upgrades caused by these dependencies, so I'd rather
leave the bug fixed.
