Try doing the port -- then you'll understand.

X.Org 7 adds no new functionality (it's identical to 6.9, other than the 
source layout and config/build system).  Nobody in their right mind is 
going to expend the hours required to port this for no net gain.  And 
that's without considering the impact on all the ports that depend on 
X.Org.
