Your best bet is to a) install the current Debian X packages b) put the packages containing the bits that you want to replace on 'hold' using dselect c) replace the appropriate files in /usr/X11R6, making sure that you don't create any files that aren't there already d) when I release X packages with the appropriate versions of servers that you are looking for, take the packages off hold in dselect and install the new packages as usual. I still think that, even if they have altered Xlib and so on, all you really _need_ is the new servers, which only depend on libc. Unless, of course, you want to use the new features of Xlib.
