Is XFree86 even used anymore?

At least BSD (the ones i know of) and Solaris x86 uses xorg as default i think.
* Is XCB 100% feature-complete compared to Xlib?
I guess that XCB is not widespread enough yet to drop the X11 package now, but I'd like to hear what others think. OTOH, a Haskell binding for XCB can probably be generated automatically to a large degree via XSLT, if I understand things correctly, which would be a big plus.
