I will be placing some fixes for the X11 R4 Xibm server on expo (filename
"/contrib/Xibm-athena") later today. The following bugs are fixed by these
patches:

	1.  Poly Point on the megapel works correctly, and does not
	    hang the server with large requests.

	2.  twm on the aed does not crash the server.

	3.  On multi-screen displays, the cursor changes shape correctly
	    when moved between screens.

	4.  Screen resolutions for AED and megapel displays are more
	    accurate.

These patches are unofficial; I expect that they will be in a future patch
to or release of X windows but I can't say when.  Questions about them can
be directed to me (jfc@athena.mit.edu).
