Package: xserver-xorg
Severity: normal
Version: 6.8.2.dfsg.1-1

libvgahw.a in X.org's xserver 6.8.2 is miscompiled by gcc-4. This is a
known bug to X.org [1][2][3], gcc [4] and even Red Hat [5], who've
posted a libvgahw.a [6] that fixed it, at least in my case. I found that
the libvgahw.a from xserver-xorg 6.8.2.dfsg.1-0pre1v1 also worked fine.
(No longer avaiable on people.debian.org, but I had it installed on
another machine.)

I understand this is also already known to the Debian X Maintatiner, but
I couldn't find a bug against either xorg or gcc-4.0 packgages in the
BTS, nor any mention in the debian-x email archives.

As such, I guess this is more of a visibility bug, so I (and presumably
anyone who subscribes to it) can see when the problem's solved and no
longer have to manually intervene in xorg-xserver upgrades.
