Xorg CVS.  I have no idea where Mesa CVS is nor write access to it.
(I'm sure I could find it if I needed to, but I didn't think I did.)
It was not in the xc/extras/Mesa directory, but in the xc/lib/GL
directory, so I didn't think that the files came from Mesa CVS.
It simply got lost because the builds for the new Mesa are a bit
different - the Imakefile I modified is no longer used 
(xc/lib/GL/mesa/src/Imakefile) and the change didn't get propogated
to the subdirectory Imakefiles that seem to have replaced it.
