    What does the Xlib message about the extension SHAPE mean?  Just that
    it does not support a feature introduced in R4?

Yes, the "-all" option to xwininfo attempts to see if the server supports
the SHAPE extension, so it can report shape extents.  xwininfo ought to
avoid printing out the message when the extension doesn't exist.
