but look at the dates on the changelog - 4.3.99.12 is September 10 2003.
That's changelog #437.  The XOrg release iirc is a copy of 4.3.99.903
(changelog #805, 15 February 2004).  It also tacks in an unstable
version of FreeType (have to add some value, I suppose ;-).

That's 4.4 release (29 February).
