you know that there's that I ported X11 years ago which does the 32bit if your
displays supports it, how else did people manage to run opera, firefox and

I believe that's about the old X11 port. fgb's equis is much newer and nicer

"it will be fine" -- I meant X11 will be fine, since it's relying on
closing a file descriptor in
one part of the program to cause EBADF in the select in another

I'm not quite sure as I don't use X11 on Plan 9 for these reasons:
1) "You really don’t want to use this. It’s old and slow and only
works well on 8-bit displays."

I don't think that code is right. It's correct to return with a bit set in
rfds for a file descriptor that's ready with only an end of file (zero

We're facing problems in ceratin python apps too[1].
We used to use X11/equis mainly for rdesktop until a native port[2] became
available.
Does you change break X11/equis if relinked?
