Shortly after the upgrade to 4.3.0 (the initial submit to the ports showed no
problems at that time) my MGA-450 wouldn't do full screen video anymore using
the xv extension, and using mplayer -vo sdl -vm -fs -zoom would change to a
video mode (-vm yes) that rendered the X server unusable: high load and no
signal to the monitor. 

I'm also having trouble with some opengl apps, but that might be related to
the notice in

( [6] Don't explicitly link libGL.so against libc, for the sake of 4.x's
pthreads. )
