That's the simplest.   If you could determine from the history that the
functions you copied were entirely written by Thomas Roell or entirely
written by the people using the XFree86 Project copyright, then you could
use just that one, but that work is not required, and not even that useful.
(And if changes came from both, then both are required anyway.)
