Not sure how ... since the freeze started, I haven't seen any commits to the X 
system go through, or anything else for that matter (sorry, except for one port 
that I can't recall its name) ... I know in my case, I'm looking forward to the 
freeze being lifted since there was a recent release of new versions of PHP ... 
:)

Not 100% certain, but Kris just posted a note about the X stuff bbeing 
committed, so I'm guessing RSN ...
