The rework of of the dri drivers that I am doing is also dependent on parallel

We'd like to feel comfortable enough with the versioning mechanisms in place in the dri and drm that they can live in seperate trees. Your drivers should be able to figure out at runtime whether the drm has is new enough and either cope or exit with an error message. New drms must always work with old clients.
