In case you run the 7.2 version of Xorg, you should. Just to keep the
gap between the changes minimal. Using 7.2 with the git sources might
stretch you luck since it looks like Xorg is going through major changes
lately. The chance of having a version-mismatch is present.
Hence your errors you reported earlier.

I also am avoiding EXA since this is still under heavy development.
Although I haven't tried it yet with this driver.... Use XAA to be save
(it's the default).

To save you the trouble, I attached a keyword file. I use paludis, so
you'll have to rename it.
to 'packages.keywords' I believe.
Some packages listed in the file are from overlays like xeffects

Good luck
