Bug Description

Changes since v1.16:
- Adam continues to strip out stale code and clean up the server. Thousands of lines of unnecessary code have disappeared yet again.
- The modesetting driver has been merged into the server code base, simplifying ongoing maintenance by coupling it to the X server ABI/API release schedule. This now includes DRI2 support (so that GLX works correctly) along with Glamor support (which handles DRI3).
- Lots of Glamor improvements, including a rewrite of the core protocol rendering functions

I would have uploaded it before feature freeze, but fglrx isn't ready yet. <again>

Ask us again when fglrx is ready. There's not much point guessing if it'll be in time for the xorg update to be low-risk.
