Using common defaults will reduce errors and maintenance.
Only the very small or inexistent custom section need periodic maintenance
when the structure of the component changes. Do not edit defaults.

From the original Xsdl commit:
"sdl x server so that we can x-on-x the fb stuff for ease of debugging. if
anyone uses this in production, a big scary monster will eat them.
hrm, perhaps i should make it have a --i-know-what-i'm-doing
param that it doens't start without, heh"
That should be reason enough to not spend time maintaing it. Also, no more
elephants.

Revert "Add shave so that we can see the steaming piles of warnings generated."
This reverts commit 181cc08c89.
shave was left in the xserver 1.7 release/branch to allow developers &
distros time to transition to automake-1.11. xserver 1.8 series will
require automake-1.11 for silencing build noise.

All .a libraries were converted to .la, and instead of linking the
Xorg binary with a mix of .a and .la, and adding some libraries more
then once in the command line, etc, now it generates a single libxorg.la
from all the required convenience libraries, and links with a dummy
xorg.c (that should usually be the file with the main function...).
This removes the requirement of some things like libosandcommon and
libinit, that existed to circumvent problems when linking multiple
.a and .la in the final Xorg binary.
The "symbol table" is now generated dynamically, by a shell script,
with an embedded gawk parser that parses cpp output. The new file
sdksyms.sh is generated by hand by analyzing all Makefile.am's and
making it create a sdksyms.c file, that includes all sdk headers that
will add symbols for the Xorg binary. Module headers aren't read, and
a in 2 files it was required to add a "<hash>ifndef XorgLoader" around
declarations shared between the Xorg binary and libextmod. A few
other changes were added to other sdk headers, like preventing
multiple inclusion, or including other headers to satisfy dependencies.
This should be a lot more portable, and better (hopefully properly)
using libtool to generate convenience libraries.
