I presume you are talking about X V10.  

Many version 10 implementations were quite incomplete; wide lines were
often not implemented.  This was particularly true
of the Sun implementation, but I don't remember in the case of the
Apollo implementation.  See the manual pages for the implementations for
restrictions.

V11 comes with a complete set of graphics code, and wide lines should work
properly on any of the existing implementations.
