Okay, updated to:
As described in the section called “Overview of X11R7.7”, this
Nested release contains several X servers that either display onto another X
and server (Xephyr & Xnest), or render into a virtual memory framebuffer
virtual X (Xvfb & Xfake). These may be replaced in a future release by use of
servers the Xorg server with the xf86-video-nested and xf86-video-dummy
drivers which perform the same tasks.
