Ian, if i remember right i did:

# fetch the xserver source

apt-get source xserver-xorg

cd xorg-server-1.9.0

# changed line 637
# -> (pWin->drawable.id == screenInfo.screens[0]->screensaver.wid))
# <- (pDst->drawable.id == screenInfo.screens[0]->screensaver.wid))
vi Xext/panoramiXprocs.c

# at this point i uninstalled the nvidia driver
# (i use the one from the nvidia website)
# with nvidia driver installed i got libGL dependency errors
#
# ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-260.19.12.run --uninstall
#
# I also uninstalled fglrx (maybe not necessary)

# rebuild the package
# (it reported some dependencies i had to apt-get install ... first)

debuild -us -uc -i

cd ..

# install the new xserver
dpkg -i xserver-xorg-core_1.9.0-0ubuntu7_amd64.deb

# install the nvidia driver again
./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-260.19.12.run
