And by the way, commit message for update of x11-servers/xorg-server to 
1.4.2 is quite misleading. It says that it is just a security update. 
But in fact 1.4.1=>1.4.2 change is a security update and our port used 
to have version 1.4[.0], and there were some larger functionality 
changes between 1.4=>1.4.0.90=>1.4.1 which the port didn't get before.
