Another unofficial patch to X11R4 for SGI/IRIX 3.3

[James Helman]

I put some more stuff out for anonymous FTP from fresnel.stanford.edu
(36.10.0.77) in pub/4DX.

First, if you are trying to compile R4 under IRIX 3.3, there is YATP
(yet another trivial patch) called 4DX-patch3 which:

    1) Fixes pty allocation when xterm is started via rsh. (IMPORTANT)

    2) Changes the man path to something reasonable. (However man(1)
    needs nroff(1) for formatting, so this is useful only if you have
    SGI's Documenter's Workbench.)

    3) Enables UNIX domain sockets in Xlib.  (A BIG performance win
    available with SGI's 3.3 server.)

    Be sure to read README.4DX and the patch files before patching.

Second, I put out some other compiled goodies: vtwm (virtual desktop
TWM) , xtetris, xmajhongg, color xterm.  Each compressed tar file
contains the whole "compiled" directory (source, binary, bitmaps,
fonts, app-defaults, etc.).

Third, a reminder.  No server code.  Compiling R4 only gives you
clients and libraries (which you can also get from SGI).  It will not
help with any of the compatibility problems (exposure and who owns
what part of the frame buffer) between NeWS/GL and X.  If you are
currently letting 4Sight manage your X windows, you might be happier
running an X window manager, e.g. twm, instead of relying solely upon
4Sight.  But the only sure fix is to be patient and wait for SGI to
finish integrating X.  (No 0.5 * X^2 jokes, please).

Disclaimer: These patches are unblessed and don't necessarily do anything
useful.
