Hi...

I've recently build X11R3 using gcc version 1.34 and gas version 1.31.
Everything seems to build ok, but whenever I bring up an xterm window,
I get a black background and black foreground. Uwm menus are ok, the
problem seems restricted to xterm. If I recompile the *server* with 'cc',
all appears to work ok.

The machine is a Sun 3/60 monochrome, and the gcc flags I'm using are:

	gcc -O -traditional -finline-functions -fstrength-reduce -m68881

The X code has the purdue speedups and all fixes installed.

I recall seeing references in this newsgroup to problems using gcc on
the sun, but I don't have the articles from that far back anymore.

Has anyone else seen this?

Thanks,
