    I've also noticed this phenomenon on my Sun 3/50 running SunOS 3.5 with
    either X11R3 and X11R4.  (Both were built with Sun cc.)

I don't think I ever saw this problem with SunOS 3.4, and I don't think I've
ever seen it with 4.0.3.  That doesn't guarantee anything, by a long stretch,
but I wonder if it is specific to 3.5?

    In addition, it seems as if the non-blanking screen saver broke with R4.  Now
    the screen really blanks instead of displaying the X logo.  (And I'm not
    positive that my timeout value is being honored, either.)

Do you mean that "xset noblank" doesn't produce the X logo screen saver?
