I guess I can give a bit of a status report from all my testing.
I'm testing a minimal as possible to get it built spell.

For the most part the switch is trivial...

Atm the main issues I had was:

* non-working 3d accel due to mesalib installing the dri stuff into
/usr/lib instead of /usr/lib/modules/dri(yes this IS the proper dir)
-- NEEDS to be fixed

* missing/gone X locales this is driving me insane -- NEEDS to be fixed
the only relevant information I could find so far is:
http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-modular/2005-June/000394.html
which so far hasn't solved it for me

* the XKB stuff has been modified/moved around so XKB rules need fixing
i.e. no more XkbLayout "dvorak" needs to be
XkbLayout "us"
XkbVariant "dvorak"

* auto detection of mouse protocol protocol renamed to auto-dev

The first two need to be fixed until then I consider both as
blockers...
