 The X11_TYPE was suggested because we used ${OPSYS} == "Minix" in a
 few places. I've added an X11_TYPE, and pkgsrc works okay to build
 X-related packages (ones that are known to work on minix at least).
 However, the X11_TYPE addition is much more invasive (30 to 50 files
 changed). Perhaps we could forego upstreaming the X11 changes for now,
 and just try to get the basics accepted?
 
 Are there any other changes I should make or any remaining questions
 regarding patches for Minix support?
