Archive-name: auto/comp.windows.x.announce/X11R5-public-fix-21-available Patches for a variety of problems in R5 are available via anonymous ftp on export.lcs.mit.edu and via the xstuff mail archive server on expo.lcs.mit.edu. Fixes are available via anonymous ftp to export.lcs.mit.edu (18.24.0.12), in the directory /pub/R5/fixes/. The file for this fix is "fix-21". Instructions for applying the fix are included in the file. Fixes usually propagate to other distribution sites as well, so it may pay to check at a nearer site first. For those without ftp access, individual fixes can be obtained by mail by sending a message to xstuff@expo.lcs.mit.edu (18.24.0.11). In the usual case, the message should have a subject line and no body, or a single-line body and no subject. For example, make the line: send fixes 21 to get this fix. To get a summary of fixes, make the line: index fixes If you need help, make the line: help Some mailers produce mail headers that are unusable for extracting return addresses. If you use such a mailer, you won't get any response. If you happen to know an explicit path, you can include a line like path foo%bar.bitnet@mitvma.mit.edu or path zot!gzork!me@uunet.uu.net in the body of your message, and the daemon will use it. Fix 21 corrects the following problems: xdm: patch 20 introduced a build problem on AIX 3 Xlib: (Xsi) XCreateFontSet calls free() with NULL Xlib: (Xsi) wcharint.h should not check the typedef of wchar with WNULL Xlib: (Xsi) stack allocation problem in multitasking environment Xlib: (Xsi) bug in definition of XipLocalICRec Xlib: (Xsi) LocalIM returns only Keysym Xlib: (Xsi) LoadCodeset() needs to initialize `cds_mb_cur_max'...
