Yes I do - I might go to 6 one day on that box when I have time

Hmm I have gcc34 courtesy of some other ports build dependency,
so I suppose I could add a USE_GCC=3.4 to the Makefile.
Would it be a good idea to add this to all the xorg-6.9 Makefiles ?
As an aside running a 6.8.2 server on top of 6.9 libraries produces
an interesting effect - after a few minutes the mouse pointer dives to the
left side of the screen and then will only move vertically.
