XGKS (graphics package) no longer works under Athena 7.0.  Any program run gets
the following error:

X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  1 X_CreateWindow
  Minor opcode of failed request:  0
  Resource id in failed request:  0x22a03d
  Serial number of failed request:  4
  Current serial number in output stream:  6

Executables for some sample programs using the library are in:

/mit/igks/vaxbin

Source for the examples is in:

/mit/xcontrib/toolkits/xgks/demo

These still work under 6.4.
