 Hi Frank,
 
 The xview-lib packages of all releases are symlinked to the
 same file. At least on ftp.freebsd.org--I assume the same goes for
 the mirrors. So I don't think it's worthwhile to test  different
 releases.
 
 But I do think, the following test will give us some more hints:
 
 o Delete all packages that use the xview library and then delete
   the packages xview-config-3.2.1 and xview-lib-3.2.1
 
 o Edit the file /usr/include/sys/types.h:
   Change 
   #define	FD_SETSIZE 256
   to
   #define	FD_SETSIZE 1024
 
 o rebuild the xview-lib from the ports: cd to /usr/ports/x11/xview-lib
   and run ``make clean all install''
 
 o add an xview application, like workman, run it and see what happens.
 
 Thanks for your time!
 
 Wolfgang
