No, it's completely dead. Sorry to disturb the list. Switching
over to XFree has resulted in no problems. I'll live with XFree
until either 2.2.6-RELEASE, or until other people complain.

But, the only thing that caused the change was a update
of 2.2.5-STABLE (around Oct 97) to 2.2.6-BETA (yesterday).

If no-one else complains, then it's something stupid on
my system.
