Netters,

I have been trying desperately to get emacs 18.55 to work correctly under
X windows, but to no avail.  I have even posted questions previous to this
and worked with the clues some of you nice folk gave me.  Yet, I still see
some weird things with my version of 18.55.

First weirdness:  Why do I only see what apparently is a subset of the
possible X related emacs functions when I do a M-x x-(file completion)?
When I use completion to list all the X functions this is what I see:

  Possible completions are:
  x-flip-color						x-flush-mouse-queue
  x-new-display						x-set-background-color
  x-set-bell						x-set-border-color
  x-set-border-width				x-set-cursor-color
  x-set-font						x-set-foreground-color
  x-set-internal-border-width		x-set-mouse-color
  x-store-cut-buffer

Thats it.  Is this what you see?  I suspect that many critical functions are
missing from my list, but I have no idea if this is true.  If it is true, why
am I only getting these functions?

To help answere these questions, here are some word counts from some of the 
critical files.  Check them against your files to see if I've got the
right stuff:

wc src/x*.c
	 897    2662   22421 x11fns.c
	2398    6312   53218 x11term.c
	2039    8239   57449 xdisp.c
	1401    4566   38193 xfns.c
	 419    1553   11952 xmenu.c
	1921    6029   46341 xterm.c
wc lisp/x*.el
	 146     631    5259 lisp/x-menu.el
	 279    1091   10679 lisp/x-mouse.el
	 864    3067   30906 lisp/xscheme.el
wc lisp/term/x*.el
	 222    1016    7889 x-win.el
	   2      13      89 xterm.el

I am compiling with the following config.h settings:
	#include "s-sunos4.h"
	#include "m-sparc.h"
	#define HAVE_X_WINDOWS
	#define X11
	#define HAVE_X_MENU

Other weirdness:  There is some other weirdness happening, but
I think its all related to the weirdness I've described above.

Anyone got a clue for me?
