We're looking to push out a libX11 release soon, since the current
release won't build with the latest released xproto. But what's the
situation with XCB?

Should we:
1) default on with xcb using the 0.9 release, or will this break stuff
at 1.0, or be unstable, etc?
2) default off with xcb, or autodetect, etc
3) wait until xcb 1.0 ( What are the blockers here? )

Also, Fredrik just said some of the extensions were out of data, e.g.
Xrender 2 releases behind.

Thanks,
Donnie
