I didn't see this mentioned in any README file, but you should #define
NO_3_60_CG4 in server/ddx/mfb/maskbits.h if you can arrange not to run
on a 3/60 machine with CG4 frame buffer.  This speeds up fixed text
drawing on my 3/50 by around 15%, according to x11perf, but it feels
like more than that.
