.. and it doesn't look like the Xorg people are willing/able to do something against that: witness the current thread named "Official method for determining modular X module path?" on Xorg's mailing-list which deals *exactely* with Arjan's theoretical problems of cross-distributions modules compatibility, with the same pragmatism that made Linus choose Bitkeeper. As one can consider Xorg as being a device driver, albeit in userspace, you see that the 3D part isn't going up any time soon.
