Hello Gert,
You are the first one to report such a problem. I have just
verified that the xfig you have works fine on my machine (Win98)
with the latest X11 dll's and XWin. Can you execute other X programs
(xterm, xcalc,..)?
If everything else works, I would suggest getting and compiling
ftp://www-epb.lbl.gov/xfig.3.2.3c.code_only.tar.gz
I can provide you with a suitable Imakefile and instructions.
It's a very easy process.
Pierre
