I'm having problems getting xps to run (V11R4, patch #11 & #12, SunOS 4.0.3,
cc and gcc-1.37, Sun 3/80 & Sun 3/110 & SPARC 390).  The thing compiles ok
and seems to execute the examples included, but for any other PostScript
file which is input I get the following error;

X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for
	operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  53 (X_CreatePixmap)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  0
  Resource id in failed request:  0x0
  Serial number of failed request:  95
  Current serial number in output stream:  135

I`ve traced it as far as an XSync operation in X11.c:BitBlt() but can't
get any further that this.  I know this is the most commonly referred-to
PostScript previewer for X11, but has anybody actually got it working?
