I would most like to see a trip-test.  There seems to be very little
uniformity in the treatment of many details in server inplementation.

In fact, many things which were written with portablility in mind,
for example xmntn, will run rather strangely on a some servers.
Sun 3/110 gives very different behavior than the Spacstation.

XDrawImageString is wrong on the Sun.

The At&T6386 server has a LOT of anomolies.

(Yes, I know that designing such a test is an ENORMOUS amount of work, 
but you asked )
