Please DO read the manpage. There is NO conflict (it will become clear
IFF you read the manpage). Last weekend I was testing a rather bad
scenario (all sorts of mixing of clients, servers and libraries) and as
far as I could see, everything works -- except, of course, stuff using
features only found in XFree86 4.0.

Read chapters 2 and 10 (IIRC) of the documentation shipped with XFree86
4.0. app-defaults are not server side.
