On my last world update, portage wanted to DOWNGRADE xorg-server from 1.5.3-r4 to 1.4.2. Why?

Nope. I didn't change my arch or anything at all in make.conf recently.

I'm wondering if the xorg folks decided to take several giant steps backwards or something.

It's almost certainly because you've masked >x11-base/xorg-server-1.5.3-r4 and are running ~arch. When xorg-server-1.5.3-r4 was removed from the Portage tree, the only thing left is xorg-server-1.4.2. Check your /etc/portage/package.mask file(s).
