Yup. It wasn't in with enough testing time I believe.

Just cherry pick the patch if you're using the super-duper up-to-date 
stuff. xserver itself wont compile with any released version with these 
protocol changes either, so it's not really too much to ask :)

Peter said that about half the drivers need patches for the protocol 
stuff, so intel is  not the only one that will affect things in this regard.
