Yes, I've seen a big thread about this on xfree86-devel. It's being worked
on.

Well, like I said, I have no intention to kill the 3.x servers in general
for woody. What I *was* going to do was kill the server binaries or SVGA
modules for all hardware that had at least unaccelerated support in 4.0.
I could be persuaded to change my criteria. What servers and SVGA modules
are built is a matter of editing one .cf file.
