In regards to bdf2snf, I changed my Makefile like so:

#
#  jas  (Jeff Schmidt)  Use xfc to compile the font.  Don't know anything
#  about 'bdf2snf'.
#
#xtrek.snf: xtrek.bdf
#       bdftosnf -t xtrek.bdf > xtrek.snf

xtrek.snf: xtrek.bdf
        /usr/bin/X11/xfc xtrek.bdf > xtrek.snf

I compiled this on a 9000/350 and get similar results.  I don't know
why.  I'd like to figure it out someday.  It's just a matter of time...

You might try the standard Chris Guthrie (Sys V shared Mem) version...
I've got that running on a 9000/840, but haven't tried it on a s300 yet.
