The only list is the patches we apply to the sources:
http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref/fox/fox-gate/XW_NV/open-src/app/xscreensaver/
Of course, that's the OpenSolaris/Solaris Nevada xscreensaver 5.01 patches,
which are based on what we did for xscreensaver 4.05 in Solaris 9 & 10, but
updated a bit.
