Summary of X on NeXTs:

MIT XNeXT does *not* work under 2.0, therefor it will *not* work with
color machines.

McGill's mouseX does *not* work under 2.0, so it will *not* work with
color machines.

Pencomm's co-Xist announced that it is working on a 2.0 GUI of an
X server.  It is supposed to be a 2bit server for now.

I have gotten McGill's mouseX running again under 2.0, and sent the
diffs back to McGill.  I also fixed several other server bugs.  "der
Mouse" said he'd be putting the code up for ftp.
