It'll be in when the X maintainer decides that his packages are stable
enough for general use. My impression is that their current state
isn't particularly usable unless you're willing to do significant
amounts of debugging and testing.

I'm sure one of the goals and difficulties lies in ensuring a clean
upgrade.
Since you're running unstable, though, you're probably reasonably
comfortable with random minor tweaks to your system. You might try
downloading either the source or one of the binary tarballs off of the
XFree86 distribution site, and playing around with XF86 4.0.1 that way.
