I am attempting to compile/port X11R4 on an Intel IPSC hypercube.  The
host machine is running ATT System V/386 Ver 3.2.  I have managed to get all
of the libraries and clients to compile, but when I run them, it tells me
it can't find the file /usr/X/lib/Xconnections.

I hunted it down to mit/lib/Xlib/Xstreams.c where this file name is rather
hard coded in.  I am not, however, fluent in system V to understand what
the use of this file is for, or parse it's function from the code. (I am a
socket man myself !).

Would some SYSV hack please give me a hand here.

Thanks..

Guy
