I've been doing massive X bug triage for the last 3 weeks, and have
mostly cleaned out all FC2 bugs related to X.  I'll be continuing
to clean out various ancient X bugs over the next little while
also, so we'll end up with no more FC2 bugs very shortly (if there
are any left) for X, xterm, and other things owned by xgl-maint.

Basically, you can just ignore xgl-maint bugs and they'll take
care of themselves very soon if they haven't been already.
