Yes, I had ported Ryuichi Oikawa's Mach64 acceleration for Xpmac to
XF68_FBDev. It was not that much accelerated as on ia32, but the difference
with the unaccelerated server was definitely noticable. Try `option no_accel'
in XF86Config and compare. I expect unaccelerated 4.0 to be faster than
unaccelerated 3.3.x.

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
