 neato.  X has been working without any issues at all since then.
 
  I have a netpbm buglet to report, however:
 
 ld: util/filename.o: relocation R_X86_64_32 against `a local symbol'
 can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
 util/filename.o: could not read symbols: Bad value
 gmake[1]: *** [libnetpbm.so.10.33] Error 1
 gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/pkgsrc/graphics/netpbm/work/netpbm-10.33/=
 lib'
 gmake: *** [lib/all] Error 2
 *** Error code 2
 
 Should someone have the pkgsrc package use -fPIC in case of amd64?
