I have tried compiled them but have had problems trying to get the resulting
server to run. Their appears to be some instructions that have been left out
or that I have misinterpreted.

It appears that you also require the file /etc/X0.hosts to exist and have your
machine name in it. This may be because I am running TCP/IP.

As a whole though, the X11R4 code does compile (after some complaining about
NULL deing redefined in some of the files).

If anyone else has this server running I would be interested to know.
