  /rick/  I had a couple of problems installing epoch 4.0 on an rs6000 running
  /rick/  aix 3.1.6 (with x11r4).  One I patched by ok, probably, the other I have
  /rick/  not solved:
  /rick/  
  /rick/  1. in sysdep.c, there is
  /rick/       extern TEXT_END;
  /rick/     and another extern with DATA_END.  But in m-ibmrs6000.h, those are
  /rick/     defined as 0, so those extern's fail.  I just commented them out
  /rick/     and got past the compilation error.

Yup; this is fixed in 4.2.

As for missing X functions: I dunno; are you sure you're running
X11R4?  (AIX 3.1 came with X11R3.)  I know Epoch 4.x compiles with AIX
3.2.
