Agreed and sorry about that - should have taken a closer look earlier.

There's one major downside of having the script in
xorg-macros/elsewhere - iirc not all packages require it, and even
when they do its presence is checked after we do autoreconf, in the
middle of ./configure.
Guess we can safely say that if you're missing xorg-macros (and/or
haven't configure/built) the package you shouldn't be sending patches
;-)
So we can "xorg-prepare-git-repo.sh 2>/dev/null" and be gone with it.

Sounds like a nice plan.
Doubt I'll have the time to look at this today, but I'll be flying
tomorrow so will try and take a look as boredom peaks.

Thanks
