If you can easily find out where exactly the library is, test for
libXxf86dga.so's existence.
Another approach is to look for the values of SharedLibXxf86vm and
SharedLibXxf86dga in ${X11PREFIX}/lib/X11/config/X11.tmpl -- on NetBSD
this is NO (NormalLib* is YES).
Our local XFree86 guru tells me that we don't have the shared library
since the XFree86 people don't consider the API stable.
Hope this helps,
Thomas
