fvwm-new and vtwm.gamma were linked against XFree86 2.x libraries, so
I attempted to rebuild both of them. I ran into these problems:
* fvwm-new wants xpm support as configured by Chad. Since I
didn't know where to find xpm support, I rebuilt without it.
This might not be such a great thing, but I thought that it
should work on NetBSD machines other than granola.
* vtwm.gamma has code which illegally accesses the display
structure, in GetresourceDatabase(). I changed it in the
source to:
rmdb = XrmGetDatabase(dpy);
#ifdef POSSIBLY_MORE_CORRECT_BUT_ILLEGALLY_ACCESSES_DISPLAY
if (dpy->xdefaults != NULL)
rmdb = XrmGetStringDatabase(dpy->xdefaults);
else
rmdb = NULL;
#endif
I do not know if this performs the same function.
vtwm.gamma appears to start up correctly, so I installed it.
