I started looking at the X.Org bugzilla when I first noticed the

This has made me doubt that a fix could come from upstream, but perhaps
that is not a good conclusion to draw.
I don't think you were comparing like with the like.
The dtterm problem you describe, I could reproduce with FC12 xserver 1.7.1-7,
but not with 1.7.4-6 or 1.7.5-1. This is not surprising as the patch from
fd.o bugzilla #25400 is present in FC12 1.7.4-6 and later.
We added this patch in Cygwin XServer 1.7.5-1.
I am still able to reproduce the CDE problem you describe with FC12 xserver
1.7.5-1 (as well as the cygwin Xserver 1.7.5.-1), perhaps you could confirm
that observation?
- switch to a spare VT (e.g. ctrl-alt-f2)
- login
- run X -query solaris on a spare display number (e.g. X :1 -query solaris)
- login, start CDE, use panel to launch something as before...

Hi,
Is the patch in X.Org Bugzilla 25400 superseded by this...?
http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel/2010-February/005845.html
Peter and Keith have changed their minds..maybe of some help (or a red
herring!)
Thanks for pointing that out. I had noticed that patch, despite it not being
in bugzilla, and that was included in my 20100302123309 build.
