   Can we install these files so buttons are only rectangular on vaxes? 
   Everything else is capable of reasonable performance using the shape
   extension.


I disagree.  On my RT, it took 19 seconds for the oval buttons on an
xcalc to redraw when I maximized the xcalc window.  It took a little
over 1 second to redraw with rectangular buttons.

I don't call that "reasonable".
