In an effort to get better aquainted with X.11, I have collected a good
deal of X.11 software from comp.sources.x, which I have tried to
compile.
What follows is a summary of the various errors I ran into. Some errors
are probably due to non-portable coding, and some may be due to
oddities of the platform I'm working on: Motorola 88k system running
System V/88 Release 3.2. If anyone has any clues as to how I can
resolve some of these problemns, your input would be appreciated.

xplot compiles now by replacing _usleep with sleep. Does it run? No test data!
xfish (under aquarium) won't compile if libns.a is added to the link list. Also
it only makes he background white on the NCD. Will it work in color?
xtacho requires bizarre kludges to compile! Preprocessor constants not
defined although used! Then fails to link (librpcsvc.a must be removed
from link list, not found):
$ make

_rstat is probably supposed to be in librpcsvc.a, which is unavailable.
xtroff can't compile fontstuff or xfonts subdirectories. Reference to
getdtablesize() had to be short-circuited. When xtroff runs:
