And I have come to the conclusion that it is a local problem, rather than having anything to do with the 3.4-RC. I am going to leave it be for the time being, its not related to the QA, and its not critical to me. :-) Anyway, I did the whole ( re-cvsup, re-"make world", rebuild XFree86, rebuild Enlightenment ) routine, to no success. Tried with just TWM, and still the same thing. I am thinking its something like the GTK or imlib, or libtool, or any of those little things that gets pulled-in in a X environment.
