In that case the clients can auto-detect the capabilities of the server and 
adapt, at least theoretically. The problem is just that a binary that has 
been compiled on a platform with Xrender support can not run on a platform 
whose xlib does not support Xrender, because then the shared object does not 
have the required symbols (and their implementations, of course).
