The reporter is using non-released software, it shouldn't be unexpected that
things break.  Why bother with compatibility for something that's never going
to make it into a release?  Are we going to do the same when CreatePixmap2()
gets modified again before the release?  In which case we have #ifdefs for 3
different APIs...

It's no real trouble to allow use of both, I just didn't see the point.  Not to
mention that before mixed pixmaps, driver pixmaps were essentially unusably
slow on some chipsets.
