http://cvsweb.xfree86.org/cvsweb/xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/CHANGELOG?rev=HEAD

I remembered wrong, it seems. The entry is

304. XvImage support for GeForce chips in the nv driver (Mark Vojkovich).

For Geforce 4 users, there's also

23. GeForce4 support (Mark Vojkovich).

So yes, if you pull XFree86 from CVS, GF4 support should be there.
