Will X.org 7.4 be in Intrepid?

[kevincarmony]

It's in Fedora 9 and has some awesome fixes for a lot of the stupid things X has done since the beginning of time, and also lets you run an ATI radeon with full OpenGL acceleration with the free driver from X.

It looks like everything else is shaping up quite nicely, but I'd hate to see the new X be left out.

I noticed the DebianImportFreeze, does this automatically mean a no on the new X?

Latest xorg was bumped a few days back

Got any examples of those awesome fixes? :)

The x org mailing list announcement covers the fixes - from memory I think the number was 81 or similar
