-Subject: [PATCH] Fix a build  error with Xorg master
-MIME-Version: 1.0
-Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
-Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
-
-Use xf86ReturnOptValBool() in get_bool_option() instead of
-options[option_index].value.bool to fix a compiler error with
-current Xorg xserver master branch.
-
-Also use xf86GetOptValInteger() in get_int_option() and
-xf86GetOptValString() in get_str_option() for consistency.
-
-The change causes a slight performance drop during option parsing
-because the passed-in index_value is no longer used as an index
-into the options array.
-
-Instead, it's used as a token now for the standard option getter
-functions which works since the index_value to the get_*_option()
-functions are identical to the value of options[n].token in the
-passed-in OptionInfoRec array.
-
-Also rename "int option_index" to "int token" for clarity in all
-three functions.
