+ working in some cases (Bugzilla #840, Hansruedi Glauser, Alan Hourihane).
+ 774. Via driver workaround to handle setting WC for the video memory when
+ initially only part of it has WC set (Bugzilla #1010 Thomas Hellström).
+ 773. Fix the XAA clipping flags for the via driver, which fixes a line
+ drawing problem seen with OpenOffice Calc (Bugzilla #1026,
+ Thomas Hellström).
+ 772. HKSCS and GB18030 support for luit (Bugzilla #1048, Zarick Lau).
+ 771. Fix some remaining memory allocation related problems with the via
+ driver (Bugzilla #998, Thomas Hellström).

+ or disabled from the host.def file. Implemented for *BSD, Hurd, Linux.
+ The default settings remains as before (David Dawes).
+ 769. Add a root window property called XFree86_VT that holds the VT number
+ that the XFree86 server is running on (Andrew Aitcheson, suggested by

+ 768. Fix a problem where root window properties registered with
+ xf86RegisterRootWindowProperty() are not re-registered after server
+ regeneration (David Dawes, reported by Samuel Thibault).
+ 767. Fix xtest failures for the savage driver's zero width lines by
+ removing the TwoPointLine and using only the Bresenham version
+ (reported by Nicolas Joly).

+ (Yukun Chen, Alan Hourihane).
+ 762. Fix a lockup problem on Trident Blade3D engines by permanently turning
+ on PCI Retry. Also sync the engine on CloseScreen and LeaveVT.

+ 760. Support automatic configuration of the X server on OpenBSD with
+ wsmouse-supported mices. (Matthieu Herrb).

+ accepts isn't unnecessarily restricted.
+ - Fix color palette refreshing after VT switching.
+ - Fix a core dump at server exit with the hardware cursor was enabled.
+ - Add checking for supported depths. Without this the server could
+ crash if an unsupported depth was specified.
+ (Eric Wittry)
+ 752. Update XKB registry file rules/xfree86.xml (Sergey Oudaltsov).
+ 751. Fix some rules in en_US.UTF-8 Compose file (Bugzilla #1071,

+ Nicolas Joly).
+ 742. Set the dependencies correctly for SCO shared libraries, and use gcc
+ for linking instead of ld (Bugzilla #1045, Kean Johnston).
+ 741. Some cleanups for the SCO support, and a few changes required for
+ compilation on UnixWare (Bugzilla #1045, Kean Johnston).
+ 740. Make the X server lock file code treat the display string in the same
+ way as the local listener code (i.e., convert it to an integer then back
+ to a string). This fixes a problem where an non-numeric display
+ argument could cause a second server to be started on display :0,
+ replacing the local listener nodes for the original server.

+ 733. VIA driver fixes:
+ - Restructure the via driver's cache allocation to work with both
+ the VIA and new open DRI module, and remove the now unneeded
+ version check (Thomas Hellström, Alan Cox, bugzilla #998).
+ - Remove special case lindvd hack (Alan Cox)
+ - Add support for Xv when unaccelerated (Thomas Hellström)
+ (Bugzilla #998, #1020, #1021).

+ This fixes crashes with some XIM software (see
+ http://bugzilla.mozilla.gr.jp/show_bug.cgi?id=2961#c19).
+ 731. Improve the i810 bitblt bug workaround, and re-enable the pixmap cache

+ 717. The current VIA DRI driver isn't remotely compatible with the current
+ code, so make sure it isn't loaded by requiring version 2.0.0 or later
