I reported to both freebsd-x11 and bugs.freedesktop.org. I also posted
the summary of my problem on FreeBSD/pc98 to freebsd-x11.

In short,
* older driver 1.4.6 (and maybe 1.4.7) works well with the very old MGA
card such as my 2064W.
(I'm FreeBSD/pc98 user and I can't use any other newer video cards.)
I agree to put two ports skelton: stable and developping. Or to add some
OPTONS to use stable version or develop version of mga, if possible.
