Okay, good to know. Like I said in another subthread, I think we need to
make sure that this doesn't break other use-cases. I vaguely recall that
there was one specific configuration that broke without that and I think
it was when glamor was disabled because that caused X to allocate
buffers without modifiers set. Let me try if I can reproduce such a
build somehow and check if that fails again with the revert.
