xtemplate now has a project:
    http://drupal.org/node/58790

I've got a preliminary patch that replaces Drupal's XTemplate fork
with the current, official version and updates the engine to 4.7:
    http://drupal.org/node/58803

I've tested it with contrib/themes/xtemplate/xpushbutton and it seems
to work well. If anyone can/wants-to do some testing on it I'd really
appreciate it.

Thanks,
