The Xorg Team is pleased to announce the next round of Xorg updates.
The team created a new flag called WITH_NEW_XORG that users can include
in /etc/make.conf. This was created for the intel KMS work being done
althouthough It probably works for other chips. Unfortunately, the intel
KMS driver will only work on FreeBSD 9(RELENG|STABLE) or 10/HEAD users.
Older version of FreeBSD will not be supported. Intel users will need
to patch their source manually with Konstantin?s KMS kernel patch to get
the newer chips to work. Please carefully read UPDATING entry.
Changes:
- libdrm 2.4.31 (including KMS support)
- mesa 7.11.2
- xorg-server 1.10.6
- a lot of new Graphic Drivers.
I would like to thank:

Niclas Zeising
and all helpers and testers from x11@.
The X-Server has been patched to the latest 1.7.X series, drivers
and fonts have been updated to the latest versions. This update includes
some components from Xorg 7.6 with a lot of improvements, and it seems
that the performance is much better than the old version. Also this
Update fix build issues with clang and binutils 2.17.50 in current,
remove 6.X gruft and de-author pkg-descr.

In this commit, no version changed. But if you put
'WITHOUT_NOUVEAU' on /etc/make.conf, you can use
new version of Mesa3D and libdrm.
Discussed with: rnoland on freebsd-ports/freebsd-x11.

- Patch data file paths in progs/xdemos, not just progs/demos
as yuvrect_client demo needs it.
- Add a patch for glthreads.c to fix a warning on amd64.

This gains compatibility with X.Org 6.8, but breaks it with XFree86 4.4,
so flip the IGNORE switch.
Since there is no "install" target we can use, installation is done in
do-install of port. For that we need the list of files to install which is
conveniently used to generate plist, so static pkg-plist is dropped.
