From memory, (and its been a while) some of the headers aren't in that tree, 
but that doesn't make it a bad thing to do. If we moved the driver headers 
out to include/XFdriver/cardname and left a -I in the makefile for it, we 
could adjust things so allow building against multiple X versions with just 2 
symlinks.


If you collect an X source distro you can extract the necessary headers with a 
really dirty find command in the glx X header directory and a short script to 
copy those particular files from the equivalent place in the X distro into 
their new location. Can't remember where I put the dirty script though :-(
