Let me elaborate on my allusions in
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=359328 on how I think
this situation should be handled:

      * xf86-video-i810 in sid should be reverted to a release
        compatible with Mesa 6.4, e.g. the version released with X.Org
        7.0.
      * The current release of xf86-video-i810/intel and Mesa 6.5 can be
        uploaded to experimental.
      * Once X.Org 7.1 is out, its version of xf86-video-i810 and Mesa
        6.6 can go to sid.

Comments? Maybe the incompatibility should also be reflected in the
package relationships somehow?
