Subject: xlibemu

I compiled XlibEmu (posted by Ulrich Leodolter) to some extent

First off: 

Kudos to Ulrich. It's promising.

LibX11.a  compiled out of the box.


The demo (hello)  requires libfvwm which turns out to have some problems:

o  fvwm is not organized in the distribution of xlibemu as it is expected
   by the Makefile (../fvwm) (it is ../fvwm/fvwm). Trying to compile
   fvwm leads to unpleasant things which are discouraging further efforts.
   (SIGCHLD, FD_SET issues and such).

o  trying to get simple X clients running fails since some
   ScreenRestore stuff is missing. Is it part of the new libgrx
   which I don't have yet? I defined NO_TERM_RESTORE (or some such)
   and got around it.

o  I was after able to compile and run a small test application and it
   turned out to run fine despite that JoinRound (round line ends of wide
   lines does not work).
