Whenever somebody gets around to doing it.

The source for X.org 6.9 and X.org 7.0 is the same (only the building
procedure differs), so if a card is supported by X.org 7.0 then it is
supported by X.org 6.9 as well (which is already in the ports tree.)

Just be aware that there have been several bug reports from several people
having problem when trying to use the new support for newer Radeon cards.
It seems that there are still some bugs in that code.
