I use Michel's binaries with a relatively recent benh kernel (though not the most recent one) and it works quite well on my iBook. It is both faster than X 4.1.0.1 and seems to support turning off the LCD's backlight, which apparently X 4.1.0.1 doesn't. The only problem that I have with Michel's X binaries is that my iBook seems to crash when going out of sleep (after the screen is redrawn -- only moving the mouse/trackpad works, the keyboard and mouse clicks are completely ignored) while this seems to work fine with Debian's X.
