Yes, all current releases of HP-UX include X window system code
based on release 3.  The 7.03 and 7.05 releases contain X servers
based on R4, but all the libraries are still R3.  The HP-UX 8.0 
release will include R4 library code.  In addition, we have made
R4 libraries and servers available via anonymous ftp from:

  hpcvaaz.cv.hp.com:~ftp/pub/MitX11R4/libs.s300.Z
  hpcvaaz.cv.hp.com:~ftp/pub/MitX11R4/libs.s800.Z
  hpcvaaz.cv.hp.com:~ftp/pub/XServers/X.7.03.300.Z
  hpcvaaz.cv.hp.com:~ftp/pub/unsupported/XServers/X.R4.800.Z

The Starbase libraries will do this, as will the GKS libraries
and PHIGS libraries.  I'm afraid I don't have part numbers handy,
but your sales/support reps would undoubtably be able to provide
them.
