Great! Things like gamma correction in SDL based games has been broken
for too long.

I don't have much time right now, but have you read the mailing list
thread around
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/?id=91f73b79b7ae64e5b846d1efeb470bb61a913720
and looked at the Git commit
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/?id=91f73b79b7ae64e5b846d1efeb470bb61a913720
which introduced the problem? Hopefully those should give you some idea
of why things are broken, I'll get back to answering any questions you
have about that and providing more pointers ASAP.
