Hello,
   In response to barad@dauphine.ee.tulane.edu
	# This is not so bad if I don't have xcalc to use.  What is more
	# important is that the server doesn't work properly as shown when I
	# startup using the command line:
	# 
	#	xinit -- /usr/bin/X11/XmacII -logo -v -screen 1 -depth 8
	# 
	# What happens is the following:
	# 
	# Getting interface configuration: Can't assign requested address
	# 
	# Fatal server bug!
	# ioctl I_STR VIDEO_MAP_SLOT failed
	# XIO:  fatal IO error 32 (Broken pipe) on X server "#@"
      	# after 0 requests (0 known processed) with 0 events remaining.
      	# The connection was probably broken by a server shutdown or KillClient.
	# 
	# Can anyone help out here?  Should I not use gcc?  This is the gcc I
	# picked up already made from apple.com.  Any help is appreciated.

I also had this problem.  After posting a message I received:

	## You must run fixincludes -- the gcc preprocessor otherwise mangles
	## various constants used in ioctl calls. Alternatively, compile the
	## server/ddx/mac and server/os/4.2bsd directories using the stock A/UX
	## C compiler.

 I downloaded fixincludes, from a local machine,  and ran the script.
It created several header files. After re-compiling X11R4,
everything worked fine. (But xcalc was still broken - sorry)


Hope this clears up your server problems also.
