Has anyone else encountered problems using a '-font' argument to an epoch
compiled with X11R5 libraries?  It doesn't seem to work at all for us.
That is, if you specify a font resource in your .Xdefaults file, it works
fine.  But if you try to specify one on the command line, it is ignored.

Specifically, in xdefault.c, the XrmParseCommand correctly loads the
database, but the later XrmGetResource returns 0, even though there
should clearly be a match!

PS: Setup: epoch-3.2.2, X11R5-pl6, sun4.
