Delete time-traveling multiple personality disorder from the server.
Gaetan notes:
There were a couple of drivers containing an unknown version of the
modes/parser code. This was done in server 1.2 time frame because it
was released without mode code. It was barely or not maintained
afterwards. There are currently no video drivers with a copy of the
modes code.
Most of these ifdefs were introduced in commit
a8d760f567, where Aaron wrote,
This change uses XORG_VERSION_CURRENT < 7.0 to mean "server newer
than 1.2" since XORG_VERSION current went backwards at some point.
Alan explains that:
In Xorg 1.3, when we first released an Xorg server release decoupled
from the katamari release schedule. (1.0 through 1.2 were released
as part of X11R7.0 through 7.2, while 1.3 came out between X11R7.2 &
7.3.)

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.
