What do i have to upgrade? xserver-xfree86 on the server and xlibs on
the client i guesss? And of course xlibs-dev on the client _and_ on the
machine, where i link the test program, because the library in question
is static.

I'm sorry, but i can't upgrade my machines due to dependency problems
(that's why i use woody backports in the first place).
At least i have been able to upgrade the server-packages, but i am
unable to install xlibs and xlibs-dev. 

Maybe someone besides my can build and run the simple test-program on
his systems, or i have to make a chroot-installation just for that.
Just wait some minutes for me to do this.

So i am willing, but i cannot as easily, as i would have hoped it.
