My spin on all of this is that homegrown "solutions" to the /usr/X11R6
dependency problem are just bogus.  I have no interest whatsoever in
changing the current scheme of things and will resist any such
initiatives for the time being.  They're guaranteed to buy us little
more than confusion and incompatability with the rest of the XFree86
world.

If we want to work with the X Consortium folks on a longer term and farther
ranging solution, then let's do that.  Until then, I'd like to get on with
our business if generating content!
