I've been trying to install TeX on our new Solbourne.  It compiles fine with
X11, but when trying to add SunWindows to it, I have problems with sun.c.
It looks like this file was mangled as I got it.  

Lines 21 thru 26 look like this:

/*
 * Gray background for graphics area
 */

short	mf_graybackground_image[] = {0x5555, 0xaaaa};
 	mpr_static(mf_graybackground, 2, 2, 1, mf_graybackground_image);

I get errors on line 26 (parse error before `_data', initializer for scalar
variable requires one element, & warning: data definition lacks type or
storage class).  I can understand the errors -- line 26 is a function call,
but it is at the global level (it isn't inside a function definition), but I
don't know what is supposed to be going on.  I've tried finding
mpr_static(), but can't find it in any of the source files.  I also tried
commenting the line out, but then I get errors later in the file about
mf_graybackground being undefined.
