This was added in ~2004 for the sis driver, to detect whether it could
use SSE for memcpy. Charmingly, the code to check whether that feature
exists in the server is:
#if XORG_VERSION_CURRENT >= XORG_VERSION_NUMERIC(6,8,99,13,0)
#define SISCHECKOSSSE /* Automatic check OS for SSE; requires SigIll facility */
#endif
Which means it has never worked in any modular server release.
A less gross way to do this is to check for SSE support with getauxval()
or /proc/cpuinfo or similar. Since no driver is using the existing
intercept mechanism, drop it.

X Server
The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows,
which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program
can draw into.
Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server
(or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager,
which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons
and draggable titlebars and borders.
