I am running epoch 4.0.4 (the recent beta release) under ISC 3.2.2.1
and X386 1.1b.  Epoch was compiled with gcc -O -traditional. 

The major problem I have is starting epoch.  Some timing problem when
connecting with the Xserver.  Sometimes, epoch stops immediately with
the message.

 Xlib:  warning, client built for newer rev (11) than server (0)!
 Xlib:  warning, client is protocol rev 0, server is rev 16896!

Other times an epoch edit window pops up but the minibuffer doesn't
start. Yet some other times, epoch starts running but no connection nor
message is displayed

With repeated attempts, eventually epoch comes up.


Another question:

Is "epoch -batch"  expected to work in the same manner as
"emacs -batch"?  I my system, it dumps core.

Thanks to a hint from Joel D Riedesel <riedesel@pogo.den.mmc.com>, I
had the problem fixed.  I started using ISC's sockets.  Now I have the
following in my config.h:

#include "config/s-386ix.h"
#define HAVE_SELECT
#define HAVE_SOCKETS
#define HAVE_PTYS
#define NEED_PTEM_H
#undef LIB_STANDARD
#define LIB_STANDARD -linet -lpt -lPW -lc

This is close to what the 386/Unix setup used to be in epoch 3.2.
