I'm looking at the diff now.
Wow, there have been a lot of changes in cvs since you took the snapshot.
The diff is quite big *g*
I think it's better you run the diff in respect to
the original XFree86 4.3.0 version.
Looks like the required functions from libX11 were directly included?
It's a hack and I wouldn't consider it a long-term
solution. Anyway it permits us to ship the X server
without the Xlibs and their dependencies.
There should be also a similar hack to handle the
clipboard in a way that it doesn't loose the select-
ion. I've seen a similar solution in recent versions
of cygwin-xfree.
