Just to make sure I understand this, I'm looking for a ruling from
RWS, the "X Protocol Arbitrator" ...

The errors defined by the protocol spec are what are legal, and
would be returned by a "complete" server implementation. For
example, in lots of cases the DDX routines may return boolean
False if memory allocations fail, but the DIX layer in the
distributed sample server fails to check for them or generate
errors to the client. By reading the protocol spec and using 
some common sense one should be able to determine what the
correct behavior is, right?

Thanks,
Stu
