-# Older versions of libxcb shipped a poorly libtooled .la file that caused
-# the now-gone libxcb-xlib.so module to be incorrectly linked with many
-# binaries and libraries, and cause the module to be listed (again,
-# incorrectly) in a lot of .la files. Rather than breaking a large amount
-# of existing X programs, we will use this simple trick to allow old binaries
-# to keep running, and new things to compile even if a bogus .la file
-# referencing libxcb-xlib is in the development environment.
-#
-# References to libxcb-xlib will go away as things are recompiled in the
-# future (we've eliminated any remaining references in Slackware itself).
-#
-# It's like letting a sliver work out instead of cutting off the finger.
