xdpyinfo says that the XVideo extension is available. But it appears the
Savage driver is not using it for some reason.

Hmm, the Xv initialization is only performed in the driver if the Macro
XvExtension is defined. However, I could not find where that macro is
ever defined, in the monolithic or the modular tree. Could anyone shed
some light on this?

xkb stuff broke here yesterday when I tried an updated modular build. I
have no idea how xkb is supposed to work. If I can figure it out I'll
let you know.
