With stable interfaces and published Mesa releases, there's no good reason to incorporate the Mesa code into the X release. Certainly the X build could depend on a specific Mesa release (or range of releases) if necessary, but that's already common practice for many other systems. Having X split into pieces so that Mesa could depend on those without having to have the X server also pre-built seems necessary as well though. -keith
