[comp.windows.x] X11R2 ,Suns and Andrew

I don't know if anyone else has ran across this or not, but X11R2 has
a minor problem with the Sun 3 running 3.2. I found that the optimizer
broke the Xserver code (didn't bother tracing it), so you may not want
to use the optimizer to build the server. Everything else seems to
be working reasonably well. 

I really had a question about Andrew. Before Release 2 came out, I
ftp'd the copy of Andrew on zap along with all its patches.  When I
compiled it, I had cwm, help, graph, etc. dump core on me (probably
partially due to misconfiguration). However, ez and typescript did do
some interesting things.  Then along comes X11R2 with a later release
of the Andrew code. This time typescript works, cwm also works, but
ez dumps when switching to things like the memo or graph templates.
Anyone successfully get most of it working? The user interface for it
is fairly nice and even more importantly, fairly consistent.
