xf86vmode.h missing

Hi, I'm trying to compile some old program (last update 2003) and it's 
failing due to a missing xf86vmode.h, in particular it's trying to use 
the XFree86-VidModeExtension via XF86VidModeModeLine, 
XF86VidModeGetModeLine and XF86VidModeGetViewPort. (It may try to use 
other missing things, but that's what I get out of the compiler before 
it stops.)

By doing a package search on cygwin.com this header only shows up in 4 
versions of xorg-x11-devel which is marked as obsolete. I couldn't find 
anything relevant in google and cygwin mailing list archives regarding 
this extension/header, so my questions are:

Does this API still exist or is it obsolete and has been replaced? If it 
still exists in which header/package can I find them? In case the API is 
obsolete it would be nice if you could point me to what replaced it.

Thanks in advance for any help,
