I'm wondering where you are actually looking I can see all the X.org
stuff for 7.2 in:

http://xorg.freedesktop.org/releases/X11R7.2/src/everything/

The non-Xorg support stuff is in
http://xorg.freedesktop.org/releases/X11R7.2/src/extras/

http://wiki.x.org/wiki/Releases/ModuleVersions
contains the module version for includes modules for 7.0, 7.1 and 7.2

I fail to see the rocket-science...

Dave.
