[I am not subscribed to [EMAIL PROTECTED]; please Cc the Debian bug

I was sent the following patch, but it was credited only to the Gentoo
SPARC folks.
I'd like to be a bit more specific. With Donnie Berkholz's assistance,
I had a look at http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43630.
It appears to me that this fix was authored by Daniel Seyffer and Ciaran
McCreesh. I also assume that, if copyright attaches, that it is licensed
under the same terms as those in the file, used by Concurrent Computer
Corporation and Metro Link Incorporated. (Sorry to be a pedant about
licensing; those of you who've worked with the XFree86 source code
lately can hopefully appreciate why I am being very careful.)
I will be crediting the patch accordingly; please do not hesitate to
contact me if this is incorrect.
Thanks, guys!

You'll have to apply a small patch for 2.6 kernels:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-sparc/2004/02/msg00013.html
Or, you could fix X. Patch attached (originally done by the Gentoo SPARC
folks).
