Does this imply that the XFree86 shipped with 2.1 will contain the new names in locale.alias? If so, please do not call it simply "XFree86 3.1.2" because that will lead to confusion with the definitive 3.1.2 version, and cause problems for someone who wants to upgrade their source to a new version with a future patch. Please make it clear that it is a version updated to include support for FreeBSD 2.1. David
