When I run Andrew on my Graphon X terminal at home, the scroll bars
often have glitches where the "elevator" has moved through a region and
left a too-light-grey smudge.  I've never though much about it, but it
has always happened.  It's also the case that, when I first start up
Andrew applications, my error log from the Graphon X server shows the
following errors:

Xgo: Unknown extension requested: Multi-Buffering
Xgo: Unknown extension requested: SHAPE

It just occurred to me to wonder:  Could these two facts be related? 
Does anyone know what is going on, either with the smudged scroll bars
or the odd error messages?
