I DID NOT say that.  The incompatibility is between the release 3.2.1
/usr/NeWS/lib/NeWS/sgiwin.ps and the 3.2 (and earlier)
4Dgifts/.4sight/window.ps subclass.

A corrected window.ps was distributed with release 3.2.3.  There is no problem
in 3.3.

***IMPORTANT NOTICE***

If you are upgrading from 3.2 to 3.3 and you had copied
~4Dgifts/.4sight/window.ps to your own ~/.4sight, you *must* replace it with a
copy of the window.ps distributed with 3.3.

The corrected window.ps file for 3.2.[123] and 3.3 was posted to this group a
few days ago by someone from our hotline.  I originally posted this file
several months ago, when I first discovered the problem.
