Yes that's right. There's another one too from bug #8594 which I've
also applied. As you suggested in your other message, a 1.7.3 release
would contain the patches (or perhaps it should be version 1.8, since it
needs libdrm >= 2.2 ?).

Which source are you working with? The patches are of course applied
already in git, but you should find the X.org 1.7.2 tarball does not
have them. If you're working with the Debian source and built the
package yourself for 1.7.2-3 (or -2) you'll see after building that the
patches have been applied, but not before.
