Oh well, the cat is out of the bag.  The X interface that you will
find in the ftp directories is an inferior development version.  If
you want to play with it, the files are xgi_X11r3.tar.z and
xgi_popups.tar.Z.  Don't bother with xgi.tar.Z, it won't work.  The
beta release is about to go out to selected sites.  I advise waiting
for the full release of 4.2.  At that time dynamic code-loading under
SunOS 4.0 will also be fixed (thanks to the GNU project).
