Well, I did rebuild XFree port (3.3.2, with 3.3.2-patch1 & 3.3.3-patch2)
with your patches. Thanks a lot, they've made it:
~> file /usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_SVGA
/usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_SVGA: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version
1 (FreeBSD), dynamically linked, not stripped
There were some differences, though:
i) For native gcc, there was no need in "-fno-inline" and I'm a bit
conservative WRT optimization (-O2 looks fine)
ii) One more tiny patch was needed:

Sorry, I've compiled only SVGA server, but the other ones look like they
should link just as well.
Now there's some more problem: modules don't want to load:
pex5.so: Undefined symbol "EventSwapVector"
xie.so: Undefined symbol "isItTimeToYield"
Both defined as extern, and for the life of mine I can't see what's wrong
with them (isItTimeToYield seems to be merely char, and so on).
Anyway, thanks again,
Vladimir
