Jeff,

Only Nvidia folks know that, like Aaron Plattner. Perhaps he could comment this.

However, by applying the IgnoreAbi option we can make maverick boot again.
But there are a lot of other issues with the recent nvidia-current_265.44 drivers, that need to be fixed.
So this is only a partial or superficial workaround for xserver 1.9 branch.

One example:
Open Synaptic and try to scroll (with mouse) the package list.
There is a huge difference compared to these drivers with xserver 1.8 branch.

It is true that Nvidia is a bit lagging now that xserver 1.9 has been publiced.
