    I am wondering what I need to do to make Sun3's (3/60s in particular)
    work in color.

Not much.  The 3/60 I'm typing at uses a vanilla built Xsun server.  In
/dev, there are NO entries for bwtwo*, just the single cgfour0.  Note that
when the server comes up, there are two "virtual" screens.  The one that
comes up first is monochrome, the *other* is color.  To get to the color
screen, just move the mouse horizontally "off" either side of the screen.

    Can anyone point me at a document which describes ALL of the changes
    from X11r2 to X11r3?

The R3 release notes will tell you some, and point you at files describing
others.  In general there are CHANGES files in most R3 directories describing
major things that were done.
