I can't verify it. But I had a pretty strong suspicion. :) > If it was just a misplaced competition effort, I can continue to rely on the > xorg code. It was a prank.

He made a funny commit in a branch of a dead project that no one has even committed build fixes to since May. No one, especially Adam, is going to insert backdoors in the xserver or whatever it is you're thinking. The guy has 28 commits to the xserver alone since 1.9 was released on August 20.
