Since the headers we export in the SDK use the _X_NORETURN #define introduced in xproto 7.0.17, drivers built with the SDK will also need to have at least that version of xproto installed. I considered exporting the version from configure.ac, but decided not to since the minimum required to build the X server may not always be the same as the minimum required to build drivers (for instance, if the X server used a new #define in its .c files or internal headers, but didn't export it in any of the SDK headers).

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.
