In GNU Emacs 19.27.1 (hppa1.1-hp-hpux9) of Fri Sep 30 1994 on plex

I have compiled emacs-19.27 --with-x-toolkit on an HP 9000/735,
running HPUX 9.01 (as well as previously reported on an HP 9000/425
with HPUX 9.0) and the resulting menu-bar comes out black-on-black.

The pulldown menus ditto.  I have not had this problem on the NeXT
with 19.25 (as modified by Carl Edman to run both under X and NS)
where the menu-bar and pull-downs have the look and feel of Motif. 

I could not find any documentation of how to change the
background/foreground of the menus;  so I recompiled without the 
X-Toolkit, and everything works fine. 

NOT REALLY A BUG, but an annoying "feature":

configure hppa1.1-hp-hpux produces Makefiles with 

-I/usr/include/X11R4 -I/usr/include/X11R5 -I/usr/include/X11R4

which is, to say the least, annoying.  I had to edit them by hand 
to produce -I/usr/include/X11R5 -I/usr/include/X11R4. 

Similarly for the libraries. 

Finally a suggestion:   Since info now handles gzipped files very
neatly, why not distribute all the info files (as well as the texinfo
files in the man subdirectory) in .gz format?  Would save us the
trouble of doing it by hand!
