The Xqvss server's builtin screensaver doesn't seem to check the
current time when it sets its wakeup time. I just warped my clock
ahead by a year (our new saber1.2c password file expires on 9 Jan 90,
by the way) and the screensaver kept redrawing over and over. (I
think this has been reported on the RT side, but this was my
microvax.)
It would be nicer if it would check the time *after* it finished
redrawing, and schedule an alarm based on that.
