I'm not positive this is a bug:

1) Do you have "pex5" listed in the "Modules" Section of your
XF86Config-4?

2) Does the above cause the server to crash?

It wouldn't make sense for me to have xserver-xfree86 conflict with the
xext package, because some people might still want that package
installed, to use with the still-available XFree86 3.x servers.
