Perhaps xorg has already done this?? http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=107725 05-13-08, 12:48 AM "I got assurance from the release manager that the ABI won't be changing between now and the official xserver 1.5 release, so the ABI will be marked as supported in the next driver release so that -ignoreABI won't be required." > > And I don't see why you can't have two different xorg packages.

If you can do it, and make it work seemlessly, more power to you. But I have no doubt that it is wrong to make this sort of demand on ajax's time. We've seen compatibility issues in the past with regard to nvidia on release day.
