It's a backwards compatibility kludge necessitated because the proto
package used to ship with the xf86dga.h file including the library
symbols. With the goal of making the library symbols be part of the
library and not part of the protocol package, this seems to be a
reasonable compromise -- everyone keeps building, the library symbols
are defined in the library package and future versions of both server
and apps can be changed to use the correct file, instead of this
accidentally shared one.

The server wouldn't have built in the past if it failed to define this,
so we can be pretty sure that didn't happen.
