So why is this issue only showing up with xorg-server 1.5.x? If I manually
restore /usr/lib/xorg/modules/libwfb.so from xorg-server, overwriting the
symlink from nvidia_driver, I get my graphics back.

On a box working with xorg-server 1.4.2 and nvidia_driver:
$ l /usr/lib/xorg/modules/libwfb.so
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 45 Oct 16 13:24 /usr/lib/xorg/modules/libwfb.so ->
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/libnvidia-wfb.so.177.80

So that symlink is supposed to be there, not the one from xorg-server, but
with
xorg-server 1.5.2 the symlink breaks X loading.

I don't know how xorg-server finally built to 1.5.2, as when I try to cast it
I
still receive the same error during compilation as originally posted.

Also, unrelated to this bug, had to redo my xorg.conf as I no longer has a
mouse or keyboard. :(
