    Help I'm trying to port X.V10R4 (unpatched version from MIT
    distribution tape) to my new sun 4/260C. The X source code compiles and
    builds, and works fine on my sun-3s and sun-2's.
    When I try to link the Xsun server on the sun 4  I get the following
    symbols undefined:
    _mrc_lmasktable
    _mrc_rmasktable
    These are defined as extern static in X.V10R4/libsun/text.c

    On the sun-3 and sun-2 they are defined as follows in the sun pixrect
    library.
    from /usr/lib/libpixrect.a on a sun 3/260C running a 3.4
    cg2_rop.o:
             U __mprs8_addr
             U __mprs_addr
             U __mprs_skew
             U _cg2_ops
    00000000 T _cg2_rop
             U _mem_create
             U _mem_destroy
             U _mem_rop
    00001170 D _mrc_lmasktable
    00001190 D _mrc_rmasktable
             U _pr_clip
    00001150 d _sccsid

    from a SUN 4 running release Sys4-3.2 these symbols are no longer
    defined in /usr/lib/libpixrect.a

    cg2_rop.o:
             U .mul
             U .ptr_call
    00000000 T _cg2_rop
             U _mem_create
             U _mem_destroy
             U _mem_rop
             U _pr_clip
    000017c0 d _sccsid

    Porting our client code to X version 11 is not feasible at the current
    time.

    Has anybody ported the X.V10R4 server to a sun-4 ?

    Thanks in advance for your help.
