Always fail configure with an error message. This driver is unmaintained and
hasn't seen significant fixes. Let it die. If we really need to keep this
driver alive, let's wait for a user sighting first.

This driver hasn't built since at least X Server 1.7 and no-one cared.
Not sure why this one didn't get deactivated with all the others.
