Steve,

Thanks for committing the patches.  I've built 3.3.4 from ports & it
seems to work, with the exception of one problem -- xdm dies with the
following error:

xdm error (pid 11153): /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/libXdmGreet.so: Undefined symbol "SessionPingFailed" while loading /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/libXdmGreet.so

This is happening because the XdmGreet library is trying to use
symbols defined in the xdm binary which were not exported.  If I
manually re-link xdm with the added cflag '-export-dynamic' it works
fine.

I'm not enough of a ports (or XFree86) hacker to know exactly how to
fix this the right way...  Can you help?

Thanks,

Drew
