[Buildroot] customizing xorg package

hi there,

i am starting to look into building a distro with X and h/w accelerated
drivers for pandaboard, with buildroot. i never really built Xorg with
buildroot before. so after looking around, it seems that buildroot has
packages ready for X11R7.6. however i would need to use 7.6 with some
customization, like a more recent xserver version. debian/ubuntu allow such
combination because they build each X component using the 'individual'
releases, instead of the global X11R7.x release.

so my questions are:

- has anyone already tried to build a modular X11 with  buildroot with
similar customization (e.g. from individual packages, not full release)?
- would that be interesting to get that into buildroot (assuming I or
someone here can come up with the patches for this...)?
- if there is an interest, has someone thought about the best way to do
that? i can try to give this some thinking, but if there is some work i can
reuse it's always better...

thx

nico
