Dear all,

I snipped the Cc: a bit, as this seems to be pmax-specific.

Uhmmm... nope. I'm writing this under a "homegrown" Emacs 20.3
redirected to a VXT2000+ qon a 1.4 based installation. I had some
minor quirks getting this beast up and running but AFAIK it seems to
be rock solid. Additional info:

Looks fine to me. No problems with the X-libraries at all. If this is
of major interest, I'll try to compile emacs again and supply the
diffs.

HTH,
