The problem was really trivial. Xbiff just couldn't find the flagup and
flagdown bitmaps. The package that contains xbiff (xcontrib) does not
have these bitmaps (I think it should though). xdevel does contain these
bitmaps. After installing xdevel, all works again.
Perhaps this should be reported as a bug.
