They were compile-tested only.

We had to get to a newer version of X. The version of Mesa was chosen
so it still had the backwards compat we needed. There's no way a
single developer can test all X servers, so we need help here.

Worst case, there's always the X server in base which is supposed to
work too, or the vesa driver.
