Comment 52 for bug 61746

I think that it should be at least backported to Edgy, although
according to my understanding such degradings are considered to be
general updates. I was wondering if this patch was incorporated in the
xorg core source, and if I have understood well the comments, then the
source had to be patched to get the deb file.
