Compaq for X11R6.5.1 that allows redistribution without written

Reverted darwin/bundle/**/Credits.rtf to XFree86 versions to avoid
future conflicts on ASCII but not humal readable files. (There should
probably be separate CreditsXorg.rtf files) (Egbert Eich).
been decided that the priority is to preserve the server's internal
API/ABI so that third-party drivers that depend on symbols like
noPanoramiXExtension, etc., would not need to be recompiled. Too bad
gcc on Linux doesn't support ELF's weak symbols as that would have been
a reasonable solution for preserving the ABI. N.B.: While symbols, i.e.
functions and variables revert to the old name, I did not revert build
names, i.e. -DXINERAMA, to the old -DPANORAMIX. There was no need, and
it's just a build issue that has no impact on the binary output of the
build.
Lanigan's xinerama tree on Sourceforge.Net. No attempt has been made to
handle previous, non-standard versions of the protocol. Nor has any
attempt been made to preserve the ABI of previous versions -- that part
will be added at a later time, and then probably only on systems that
have nice object/linker semantics, e.g. ELF systems with weak symbols.
