I don't understand the SRU justification here for pixman and libdrm.
What does "breaking dist-upgrade" mean in this context?  Why should
*not* SRUing these libraries result in any dist-upgrade breakage at all?

If these libraries are not needed to be SRUed again for enablement
purposes (as dependencies), then I don't believe we should be updating
them.

Bug description:
  Bug #1242633 only deals with the packages related to pointer barriers. More 
packages need to be backported to enable building saucy xserver on precise:
  - Pixman, should be copied to precise, quantal and raring, to not 
deliberately break dist-upgrading too hard.
  - libdrm, to precise, quantal and raring too, for same reason. Bug #1171340 
shows why renaming is unfeasible.

  Mesa in precise needs a small update to recognise -lts-saucy and lts-
  trusty renamed packages.
