I have yet another question.  Given that we're running OpenWindows, what
parts of MIT R4 are useful and compatible?  For example, can we grab the
latest version of the XView library from the MIT distribution and use that
in place of what we got with OpenWindows?  Can we get dbxtool and use that
in OpenWindows?  One obvious problem seems to be that we won't have an
imake, so we may have to set up Makefiles by hand.  Any other problems
come to mind?
