   I am running the newest xfig just installed from the read-write copy of
   the sipb locker.  I am unhappy.  I tried drawing a circle, and it drew a
   very large number of concentric circles.  Now, I'm on bill-the-cat,
   which is running an X11R5 X server, but I don't think that's the
   problem.

First of all, this bug was present in previous versions of xfig as
well; it is not new with 2.1.4.

Second, it is in fact NOT an xfig bug, but rather an X server bug.  If
you want to fix the server, feel free.  Although I showed it to John,
so maybe he'll do it :-).
