MY> What version of pswrap does XFree86 use?

We use a locally modified version of 1.009, as distributed with
Adobe's client side libraries.  The Adobe code is the same as the one
from which the DGS version is derived.

The local modifications have mostly to do with integrating the build
and installation of the DPS client libraries with the XFree86 build
process, and full ANSI-fication.  It is quite possible that the
changes we are speaking about have something to do with the
ANSI-fication.

At any rate, unless someone objects, I'm going to send a patch that
brings the header back in line with the Adobe implementation (which is
what Solaris follows):

  #include <DPS/dpsfriends.h>
  #include <string.h>

(By the way, the reason the XFree86 version is not derived from DGS is
that we cannot use GPLd code in our tree.  If there are any fixes that
the DGS developers would like to contribute, we will be very glad to
include them; please drop a note to fixes at xfree86.org).

Regards,
