	The Utah rle library support was done on an 80486 system running
system VR3/R4 + X11R4. If the IRIS is big endian you might have to go into
rle.h and make sure that BIG_ENDIAN is defined and LITTLE_ENDIAN is
un-defined. I hope thats all it is. Sorry all this isn't done a bit
better, but it was something I hacked together in about a day from the
Utah toolkit code.
