Nouveau should get an upgrade to go with this. I was able to run the
existing xf86-video-nouveau from [extra] by setting IgnoreABI. I
wasn't able to get the source of that snapshot to compile against the
current X stack. A current snapshot built with no problem and the
server loaded, though I couldn't test if it actually worked properly
(I started that X server on a remote machine).
