A few more changes have been made to the 6.3A packs.  Since Jeff is not
expected back until Monday and since 6.3A cannot go into staff-test
without him, we felt that freezing the packs while we still have fixes
is not appropriate; we cannot begin work on 6.3B until the 6.3A packs
have been replicated, so we might as well add the urvd-only fixes now.
This round of changes should be the last set; the packs have now been
marked read-only.  A new set of release notes is forthcoming and will
reflect these changes (oh well... so the last set release notes wasn't
the final one as I had announced).

/usr/athena/makedepend

    The version from the X11R3 distribution has been used as a basis.  In
    addition, a dependency on the source file will now also be generated.


/usr/athena/xversion

    This program formerly resided in /usr/bin/X11.  Since it is not specific
    to X11, was created here at Athena, and is not part of the X
    distribution, it has been moved.  In addition, a new -r option has been
    added to also print the minor revision number in addition to the major
    protocol revision number.


/usr/bin/X11/xmh

    The bug which left defunct processes has now been fixed.


/etc/athena/xdm/

    - Bells now work in the console window
    - Cut and paste now works
    - You cannot deselect all the login-style buttons anymore
