mga_hal packages the Matrox binary HAL for X.Org/XFree86. It provides dualhead
support for G400 cards (G450 and G550 card do not need this) and TV-out. It
also provides a "Merged Framebuffer" mode that is supposed to allow 3d
acceleration on both heads.

New port: mga_hal, a packaging of the Matrox HAL binary, which extends the set
of features supported by the open-source Matrox driver for X.Org and XFree86.
This is a newer version than that discussed in the original PR, and has only
been tested briefly by myself on a G400 with X.Org 6.8.1. Note that though the
readme.txt says the file is redistributable, the only licensing information to
be found is the click-through on the website which says redistribution is not
allowed.
