According to the latest FAQ of comp.windows.x, the xclock has bug which
prevents it from function properly in X11R4 environment (but you can run
it in X11R3).  It has been fixed and a new src has been posted laterly.
Check that FAQ for more details. 

I found out this in the hard way.  I tried to use Thomas Roell's X386  
ported to ESIX by Mike Knister of U.Michigan.  When I started xclock,
it core-dumped right away.  Later when I read the FAQ for X, I learned
the existance of the bug.
