What drivers are you talking about? A quick glance tells me that old drivers like tdfx and savage were only modified 7 and 8 times respectively in 2010, so I don't see old drivers slowing any development down. A number of commits to these drivers were 'Remove unnecessary header.' anyway. What would splitting these drivers out of the Mesa codebase allow? Intel's still using the classic infrastructure, so.
