Sounds fine. In some cases it might not be necessary to get that
complicated. Functions like 
GSWindowDepthForScreen are used in only one class, and probably not very
often.

I think it's useful to do this, particularly to refine the separation
between gui and the backend.

That's almost not necessary. That should all be encapsulated in
xgps/xgps.make.in or xdps/xdps.make.in now. We should refine that
though. What about static and profiled executables?
