Hi paul. I have been following this for a while, and I think the main
reason that no distributions are shipping XFree86 4.4.0 is because in
the license agreement, it requires written permission to advertise, and
distribute binaries. Along with adding some sort of notice to the
packaging, etc.

This is what's stopping XFree86 4.4.0 from being shipped with it's
current licenses.

Thank you,

John Dee
