This is pre-release of the ATI driver aimed at 7.3. It doesn't contain randr1.2
support it does however contain a major re-write of the output mappings from
what was known as Alex's superpatch. Please logs all regressions into bugzilla
so we can fix them before the 6.7 release.

Adam Jackson:
       Undo unintended configure.ac change.

airlied:
       split mode handling code into separate modes source file
