Greetings!

	I've just gotten gnuchess 4.0.45 compiled on my Sun386i and it
works great.  I went ahead and compiled The Xboard that came with it
(Version 2.0.17) and it compiles fine, but just continues to give me
the Usage() statement when I do "xboard gnuchessx".  I've also noticed that
it will (sometimes) give me an error that something is wrong with
matchMode, but I've left it at both the default as well as explicitly
set it to "False" an it complains.  :-(  Is there something else I should
try to get it to work???? I've compiled with Sun's CC as well as Gcc 1.39,
neither of them help the situation one way or another. 

As a minor bug though, the error message given when an invalid entry is
giving to matchMode and boardSize, the program name and argument given
are reversed...
