Well, some testing would be good.  I was about to send a mail about that but you
beat me to it. :-)

So, everybody: please test the x-updates branch.  If you have a recent Nix
prerelease, you may want to use "--option binary-caches http://hydra.nixos.org"
to get prebuilt binaries from Hydra.

There are also some failing builds.  To see the regressions compared to the
trunk, go to:

  http://hydra.nixos.org/jobset/nixpkgs/xorg-test/latest-eval?compare=trunk

and please fix packages you care about...

Yup, I definitely don't want Mesa 9.0 right now :-)
