Summary: Screen doesn't get updated sometimes

I have brought up (or at least tried to) X11 on my RT PC running ACIS 4.3
(whatever it is called) with an APA16 display.  I have fixes 1-60
applied (in theory at least).

When I run uwm (and maybe when I don't; but there isn't much functionality
in NOT, so I haven't run that way much) I often get into a situation
in which pieces of the screen will not get updated.  In other words, these
pieces remain constant, even if uwm wants to put, say, a menu there.
These areas seem to be defined by "y in [ytop,ybottom]".  Sometimes
more than one "swath" will be so affected.  Running "xrefresh" normally
makes things happy again.

I've never looked at X code (and would just as soon not at the present).
Has anyone seen this bug, and if so, is there a fix?  (I have fixes 1-60
installed on my machine.)

Thanks,

Greg Minshall
