Generally a good advice :-) But developers are somewhat responsible for
their changes, so they should revert if a bug occurs. As a second
choice other shall take for it (idea of distributed workload).

Concerning XDRIVER:

I checked with cvs2cl.pl

src/display/devices/XDRIVER:
2001-01-23 01:06  john

        * lib/connect.c: connect.c changed to run under cygwin

2001-01-23 01:05  john

        * XDRIVER24/SWITCHER.c: SWITCHER.c changed to run under cygwin

cd src/libes/
2001-01-23 01:04  john

        * raster/io.c: io.c chnaged to run under cygwin

Maybe it was intended to update the files
 src/display/devices/XDRIVER/lib/ipc.new/connect.c
 src/display/devices/XDRIVER/XDRIVER24/ipc.new/SWITCHER.c 
 src/libes/raster/ipc.new/io.c
?

Sorry, due to lack of time I cannot migrate the misplaced update into
the individual ipc.new/ directories and revert the changes in the parent
directories...
