That's the right thing to do. I tested the patches and found a scenario
that fails.
When a doctools v1.3 is present, the linuxdoc in hw/dmx/doc do not
build. There is
a requirement that an older "client" of util-macros behaves the same way
when linked with a newer version.

This should be relatively easy to fix. In util-macros v1.7, the code
should revert to the v1.6
flawed behaviour when the doctools pc file is not found. It should not
assume that the package
is missing and that the sgml definitions are missing as well.

Thanks for the review; revised patch sent to list.

Note this patch introduces a build order dependency where doctools be
built before xserver.
Nothing wrong with that, just need to check the build script.

Only if you want to --enable-builddocs in xserver, just as before.

Once that's fixed, the release plan should be:

util-macros v1.7 released first.
doctools v1.4 with XORG_MACROS_VERSION(1.7) released second.

The new doctools-1.4 does not need macros-1.7, it does not use XORG_CHECK_SGML_DOCTOOLS nor the other macros affected by this change.
