There were a couple of drivers containing an unknown version of the
modes/parser code.
This was done in server 1.2 time frame because it was released without
mode code.
It was barely or not maintained afterwards. 
There are currently no video drivers with a copy of the modes code.

I am not familiar with the topic at hand, forgive me if I have
misunderstood the question.
