If you don't understand: this means, that xserver-mach64 is unneeded !!!!

read the words after "except".

           All hardware supported in 3.3.6 is also supported in 4.2.1 except
           for the 911, 924, 801, 805, 928, 864, and 868, and versions of
           the 964 and 968 that do not use the RAMDAC chips listed above.
           The SuperSavage chipset is supported only in 4.2.1.

If you don't understand: this means, that xserver-s3v is unneeded !!!!

same here.

           All cards supported by 3.3.6 are also supported by 4.2.1 except
           for the old ET3000.

If you don't understand: this means, that xserver-w32 is unneeded !!!!

and here

In 1.7GB always there are some _really_ unneeded software - like these
xserver, orphaned libraries, theme or background packages, etc

every driver for a card you don#t have in unneeded? aha.

Users should decide what is important and what not. Perhaps voting is the
best solution.
drivers are important and ONE app for each job is important. Nothing else.
