I have made it a point to fix the drivers consuming API I want to
remove, before removing it.  For example:

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-vesa/commit/?id=d994a9abbda582ccd6d38447ca2201de10cc36a5
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-chips/commit/?id=1c51b5495c51306d7c949583050cdba6f1baf5cc

It's usually trivial, and it prevents people from complaining.
