It is a little tedious as all of the server based ports need to be updated and drivers need PORTREVISION bumps. I'll try and get it committed in the next couple of days though." He mentions update (not just PORTREVISION bump) of pixman and other server-based ports. I have some vague insight into what he means, but I'd say it should be done by a person more familiar (than me) with xorg infrastucture with all its interdependencies. Alexey.
