I already explained this to you:

http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-modular/2006-May/001083.html

fbcmap.c should not be DDX-dependent.  That it is, is a bug, and we're not 
going to fix it by splitting the file up, because that's the wrong solution.  
The correct solution is to fix the code to do consistent colormap handling 
for all DDXes.
