Thank you very much for this analysis.

It looks as if I'd have to repack xbase to provide XbaseR6, and xlib6 to
provide xlibraries and xlib. Larry, do you concur? Brian, I think this is
imperfect but we can live with it.

Larry, how do the Athena widget replacements break? If you currently have
them installed, what happens when you upgrade X?

	Thanks
