Which version x.org xserver got rid of ClockRanges?

[Kevin Brace]

Hi Pekka,

Can I include your name in the commit I will put into OpenChrome shortly?
It will look like this.

Let me know if it is okay.
If you do not want your name included, I will remove it.
I will set XORG_VERSION_NUMERIC to (1,8,0,0,0), since I assume this means x.org xserver Version 1.08.

Regards,

Kevin Brace
