Emacs version
-------------
	18.55 compiled with HAVE_X_WINDOWS set.  Problem occurs
	across all our machines (vax_ultrix3, mips_ultrix3,
	sun3_sunos4, sun386_sunos4, sun4_sunos4).

Problem
-------

	 x-get-mouse-event returns

                   wrong argument type: listp, <integer>

	(where <integer> has varied between systems and various attempts to
	run x-get-mouse-event).

Fix(?)
------
	x11fns.c has the following line

	line 643:     Vx_mouse_abs_pos = Fcond (tempx, Fcons (tempy, Qnil));

	Should `Fcond' be `Fcons'?  I remade everything with this
	change and all seems well now.

Cheers
