Could you please add the panning bug fix in Debian's xserver?

[Craig Metz <cmetz@inner.net>]

  Several years ago, the xorg maintainers replumbed how panning (the old
XFree86 "Virtual") works to use RandR. This was all well and good in theory,
but I have never seen the new RandR-based system in any actual reality work
without external bug-fix patches.

  The latest reason why it doesn't work is an improper limitation on mouse
movement that prevents you from panning over outside the physical bounds.
Here's the relevant bug:

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39949

  Chris Bagwell posted a proposed patch. See "Sample fix for panning/scaling"
attached to the bug report.

  I've been running this patch for >6months, dropping it into debian/patches
and adding it to the list to weave in, and it's worked fine while introducing
no problems. I can certainly keep building and deploying my own
xorg-xserver-core debs with this bug fix, but I really shouldn't have to!

  Would you be willing to include this bug fix in the patch set that builds
the Debian xserver? OpenSUSE imported it as well.

  Ideally, upstream would simply fix their bug. It's been 9 months, no fix yet.

  Thank you,
