I recently switched to DECwindows UWS 2.0 from MIT X11 release 3 on
a VAXstation 3500/GPX (I also upgraded to Ultrix 3.0 from Ultrix 2.2).
My primary editor is GNU Emacs.  After a short period of time,  emacs
reports the following:

Xlib: sequence lost (0x10000 > 0xd85a) in reply type 0x0!

Emacs then stops functioning and appers to go into some kind of
infinite loop that beats on the server until I kill the emacs.
I remember a short discussion some months ago on this topic
but I can't remember the outcome.  I am desparate -- this problem
is a show-stopper for me.
