Note that this isn't just 'freedesktop.org' we're talking about here, it's 
the new-and-improved X.org Foundation's versions of these packages which 
I'm pushing towards a more modular structure.  

I plan on migrating bits of the upcoming X11R6.7 release into the modular
tree and essentially abandoning the version in the monolithic tree --
making the default monolithic build not install bits which come from the
modular environment.

Everything remains ABI/API compatible, so we shouldn't affect existing 
packages at all, aside from the X packages having new names in some cases.
