I'm pretty sure we discussed this once before and the outcome was: the 
protocol headers can't be changed, the defines need to stay around.

what we can do however is _add_ them to libXi and ifdef them out 
accordingly. this also means that the ifndef will never be hit, but it's 
still easier to read this way.

so there is no matching patch for inputproto for this change, we keep 
the defines around for backwards compatibility. the new additions 
however are only in libXi.
