Hi,
Just ordered a X79A-GD65 off of ebay, and after looking around at the socket, it appears not to have the 2011 bracket. In fact, it appears to have the X-socket to make it compatible with 1366 mounting systems. Now, as far as I know, MSI does not have an X-socket feature like Asus does, and Asus says the X-socket is only compatible with their RIVE and RIVF boards.
For those of you who don't know what I'm talking about, here are the pics:

Anyone got any ideas? I'm contacting the ebay seller as well.
