It is a bit of a shame that XCALIBRATE has been removed upstream, but
it's fairly self-contained and it wouldn't be all that hard for
oe[-core] to patch it back in again.

 We probably are going to need to rewrite xtscal to use XI2 at this
 point :/.

Yes, or that might be a better answer in the long term.  I do have a
certain fondness for XCALIBRATE but it was never an especially elegant
solution to the problem.  If XI2 can do the same thing more neatly then
updating xtscal to use it is probably the right thing.  Patches welcome
I guess :-}

 - remove the patches
   * xserver-kdrive-1.3.0.0/*: no longer used
   * disable-xf86-dga-xorgcfg.patch: no longer used
   * nodolt.patch: already in upstream
   * enable-xcalibrate.patch: it is invalid now, because XCALIBRATE
 extension has been removed since commit edcceedb

Er, has anyone actually tried touchscreens with these changes,
particularly trying to calibrate a touchscreen under X with xtscal? 

As far as I can tell, we can throw away xtscal, libxcalibrate, and
calibrateproto after that change since they need that X extension. Its a
