BIIIIIIIIIINGO!

That is to say that subject to verification, upgrading the
XFree86-4-Server package to 4.3.0_2 with patch-nv_setup.c results in a
working nv driver and the X display I'm now using.

> Only XFree86-4-Server.  That's the only port affected.

These are the XFree86 packages I have now:

XFree86-Server-4.3.0_2 XFree86-4 X server and related programs
XFree86-FontServer-4.2.0_1 XFree86-4 Font Server
XFree86-NestServer-4.2.1_1 XFree86-4 Xnest server
XFree86-PrintServer-4.2.1_1 XFree86-4 print Server
XFree86-VirtualFramebufferServer-4.2.1_1 XFree86-4 Virtual Framebuffer Server
XFree86-clients-4.2.1_3 XFree86-4 Client environments
XFree86-documents-4.2.0 XFree86-4 Document Files
XFree86-font100dpi-4.2.0 XFree86-4 bitmap 100 dpi fonts
XFree86-font75dpi-4.2.0 XFree86-4 bitmap 75 dpi fonts
XFree86-fontCyrillic-4.2.0_4 XFree86-4 Cyrillic Fonts
XFree86-fontDefaultBitmaps-4.2.0 XFree86-4 default bitmap fonts
XFree86-fontEncodings-4.2.0 XFree86-4 font encoding files
XFree86-fontScalable-4.2.0 XFree86-4 Scalable font files
XFree86-libraries-4.2.1_7 XFree86-4 include/(shared) library kit
XFree86-manuals-4.2.0 XFree86-4 man pages

I will now go ahead up update all the other packages and, I hope, confirm
that everything continues to work with the new libraries and other bits.

Please excuse the delay in testing. I had `left it to build' twice and
come back to find some problem (not with the build).

Thanks for the good work.
