 Well, since I wrote that message, I upgraded my system NetBSD-current
 using the snapshot/950301 and along with it, I installed Ezy's cirrus
 driver, which works wonderfully with Xamiga24.  I can't really get Xcl
 to work with it, but that's not that drastic, since I have an X server of
 some sort.  In case anyone wonders,  if I start Xcl, the screen changes 
 to the familiar pattern background, but I never get the 'X' pointer and
 the server appears to be frozen. Unfortunately, the only thing I can do
 at that point is the old Ctrl-A-A.  (fsck really loves that!)
