[Xorg] Reorganizing the xc/include directory

If you used bitkeeper you could do the branch with history without doing any
special commands. You could sync it to the trunk every day automatically unless
there is a merge conflict. It would track file renames in the history and do
merges that track the file renames. Plus bkbits provides a transparent bridge to
CVS for people that stick with it.

Just my occasional plug for bitkeeper. After using it on the kernel I have
concluded that it is way better than CVS. Just my opinion, I have nothing to do
with the company.
