Recently --- about five days ago --- I dist-upgraded my Sid-running iBook G4
(late 2005 version), and Xorg broke. When trying to start the X server, it
would give an error, and not start:

That's all? It doesn't say what symbol's unresolved?
Yes, it actually does; it's drmSetServerInfo. Happens that it got
truncated in the ncurses error window that appeared, and I didn'tnotice it.
I launched X redirecting stderr to a log file, and this is what got
logged before the whole system crashed (which, in case I didin't mention
earlier, happens when it tries to load libdri.so):

The most likely cause is a stale libdrm; what does
ldd /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libdri.so
say?
