We actually did have it turned on at one point, and Isaac asked that it not
be, because there were users who upgraded and suddenly had broken systems,
since they didn't use nVidia cards for output. I believe the problem with
patching it so the default is to have XvMC disabled is that there isn't
anywhere to set it off, other than in the user's config database. I could be
mistaken though.
