To avoid possible problems in failing to do this, I suggest that we
change every tag in the system to

/* Based on $XFree86: ... $ */

We can easily automate that process and avoid future problems.

And, at the same time, we can add regular $Id: $ lines above that and make 
sure our CVS tags are included.  Given a shared CVS repository, there's no 
real need to use a custom tag any longer -- people who want to create a 
private repository can deal with the problem themselves.
