The (very small) patches can be found at <<http://freedesktop.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=591>.

If you have any influence on the Xorg team, please use it to get this patch into the xorg-x11 distribution, and if possible into FC-3 too. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail (<80k only): tim /at/ birdsnest.maths.tcd.ie tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
