- There is a patch from Johan Garpendahl <garp@isy.liu.se> available at
- ugle.unit.no:/pub/X11/contrib/InterViews/3.1-beta3-patch (I am sure it
- can be found at Johan's "native" ftp server as well, isy.liu.se, but I
- haven't checked). This fixes two things:
- o the Doc coredump
- o the pattern menu of idraw (gives you the full number of built-in
- patterns.
- Read the instructions at the start of the file.

- I have been told by a trustworthy source that the virtual function
- pointer table bug in g++ is being worked on.
