No worries, and take your time! I just wanted to ping the patch so that the security fixes could land before the 1.4 release. :)

When I first sent it, on my machine "guix refresh --list-dependent xorg-serv" said it was 80-something packages that would be rebuilt (just checked again after typing that, and it says 82 packages would be built to ensure 137 dependet packages are rebuilt).

Thanks,
Kaelyn
