No problems here. I belive it's just raw xlib or sth...
no gkt+/qt, at least

I asked the author. There are some extra code pieces included in source.
In case of rxvt code the reason is that the rxvt is modified and
_included_ in xnc binary so it is impossible to use rxvt from
distribution (at least the author don't want to do this).

Sponsored upload happened week ago. Unfortunatelly it seems that C-I-M
transition makes ftpmasters busy and this package is still waiting
outdoor (same as 2 other my packages).
Hope the'll make into woody.
