The proper version to use is unclear to me, because this is an update,
but not an NMU. I cannot use -5 since we already have -6 in
experimental and the experimental version is needed to test build
against newer X servers that won't go into unstable until after Lenny
is out.
Also note that I haven't been able to test this on GX2/CS5535 since I
don't have access to such hardware. However, I have been able to
verify that it doesn't introduce any regression on already supported
LX/CS5536.
