You will probably lose compatibility with servers built from the
monolithic tree (i.e. XFree86 4.x, Xorg 6.x), but the Makefile.am's
in the modular tree never converted the custom allocator code that
was previously used for Xalloc etal, so all modular server 1.x releases
should already be just malloc (unless someone made a local patch to
enable that and never submitted upstream, but then they can't expect
upstream to support their local mods).
