Given the questionable changes made to X.Org by the lead (only?)
developer of X11Libre before being removed from the project, including
possible license violations, I do not think following that individual's
fork is a good idea.  A bunch of patches of dubious quality and/or
legality doesn't really mean "actively maintained" - anybody can fork
something and make a bunch of commits.
