Essentially all from the xlibs tree with numbers not beginning with
"0.".
And as OpenEmbedded is essentially a source code distribution, and
the build system prefers higher package version numbers over lower
ones, it's not only runtime dependencies.
But we've decided to prepend a epoch number for X11R7, so it's not
really a problem.
