By the way, ... is there a plan for getting these changes into the
SourceForge CVS?

Gentlemen, 

        In an earlier message somebody suggested that since "Unix" is a
trademarked name we should change our macro "TARGET_HOST_UNIX_X11" to
"TARGET_HOST_POSIX_X11".  This will have no effect on compilation,
execution, or code clarity and will help our legal standing.  I fully
support this change.

        I was going to mention it on this reflector here and ask how
everybody else feels about it, but I see somebody has already put it into
Joe's SVN repository.  If anybody has a severe heartburn about it, please
speak now or else forever hold your peace.
