I think that Xorg 7.1 for FC5 should be available through yum repository like now is AIGLX for FC5:

And if one of the critical security patches has dependancies on X, what 
then?

That brings up another unasked question...

When you update X 7.1, what else has to be updated?  I would assume GTK 
and Qt.  What else?  Anything using Xlib directly? All X apps?  Just how 
big of an update is that going to be?
