Hello everyone,

This patchset fixes compilation for both xf86-video drivers that
wouldn't build with xorg-server 21.1 because some variables were
renamed.  The first is home-made while the second is an upstream patch
that hasn't found its way to a release yet.

They both successfully build on my machine, although I can't test
either of them.  Given the nature of the changes, this shouldn't be
too much of an issue.

Happy sprinting,
Josselin

Pushed as 572641103880ce87b631e00e6212787747f694aa and
674dbeb43639db31c3f3a6e69ee7203296d0b50f.  I made one small change,
which is to list the patches in “gnu/local.mk” under ‘dist_patch_DATA’.
Thanks!
