Thanks for the heads-up. Since I had originally intended the patches
to go against the Android tree, I wasn't thinking too hard about how
other things would react to the changes. I figured I'd make them
Xorg-compatible in case they were rejected by Google, but didn't
consider custom applications.

Based on the replies to the first patch though, I may be withdrawing
these patches anyway... We need to wait and see if my Android
rejection is reversed or not.
