It does, in Unstables X.org version 6.8.2 but this version doesn't support
Savage DRI in upstream, and driver is backported from HEAD. I tried it,
it created /dev/dri/card0 but nothing in Xorg.0.log about direct rendering,
also LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose glxinfo is completely silent and it just gives me
Direct Rendering: No.
X.org 6.8.99.901 packages in experimental doesn't have package called libgl1-mesa-dri,
only xlibmesa-dri and it's missing that file. This version of X.org supports Savage DRI in upstream also.
