Excerpts from mail: 10-Dec-90 zip arrowhead bug on rs_aix31 Paul

Since the drawing code is identical for both machines, I feel confident
in stating that this is a bug in the X server that was supplied with 
rs_aix31. ATK has proven to be a good test suite for X servers, in that
we seem to use parts of X that no-one else has. As a result, many server
bugs show up in ATK and are often mis-attributed to ATK. Unfortunately,
there is not a whole lot we can do about them, outside of reporting them
to those responsible for the X-server in question. Sometimes we can come
up with work arounds, but trying to compensate for the failings of every
X server in the world would be fighting a losing battle.
