Ask and ye shall recieve.  I fixed mouse-X a while ago and sent the
diffs back to McGill, but since they don't seem to be available for
anonymous ftp yet there, i've put them up.

They are on cunixf.cc.columbia.edu (128.59.40.130) as X11R4-Next-2.0.tar.Z

I don't know if they are completely in synch with McGill yet, and have
had a couple of minor reports about it (like the shifted top row of
the new keyboard's keypad aren't supported).  Please report other
problems as you find them.
