The only R3 that I've heard it has in it is the R3 that the Folks at MIT
left in the R4 "libXt" when they shipped X11R4, namely the version
number in the include file.  Unfortunately, the patch that fixed that
botch came out too late for inclusion in OW 2.0....

One sincerely hopes that when R5 comes out, either:

1) the version number checking is removed;

2) the version number stays at 11004;

3) the version number is updated to 11005 *before* any patches come out.
