Well, I'd like to make a X11R6.8.3, even if it's only purpose is to get
the "nv" driver uploaded (which was too late), get Daniel's stuff fixed
(which was beyond the code freeze deadline) and the RADEON disaster
corrected. Let's talk about that on the xdevconf...

Well, maybe you should wait with the "thanks" until X11R6.8.3 is out
with a fixed RADEON driver (as it's more or less my fault that this
issue wasn't caught before the release... ;-() ...
