Just tried x-updates, and X won't start any more.  Is anyone else
using the open source AMD driver?

There's something in the X log about "dlopen of /lib/dri/swrast_dri.so
failed", since the file doesn't exist.  Hopefully I'll have time later
to look into this.

There are a few linking errors mentioned in
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/909 and vcunat's comment.
