I've seen several people complaining about the problem of other X
applications (like Xterm) going away when you exit Epoch.  It has to
do with exiting Epoch while something is marked in the other
application's window (that has been pasted to Epoch).

We run both Openwin and Motif on SparcStations here and have noticed
that this problem occurs on the machines that run the Openwin (xnews)
SERVER.  It is NOT related to running the Openwin or Motif WINDOW
MANAGER.  That is:

    motif					- No problem (MIT server)
    motif -server /usr/openwin/bin/xnews	- Problem (xnews server)
    openwin					- Problem (xnews server)

Anyway, the interesting thing is that we just switched from X11R4 to
X11R5 and the problem appears to have gone away in all cases.
