programs/Xserver

  ~ fb/fbbltone.c                         

  > Make X stop crashing.
  > tested by tdeval@, uwe@ and others
  > ok matthieu@, deraadt@ (kettenis@)

programs/xterm

  ~ Tekproc.c                             ~ charproc.c
  ~ data.h                                ~ main.c
  ~ misc.c                                

  > Instead of calling Cleanup() from the SIGCHLD hanlder (which is not
  > signal safe!) just set a flag and check that flag before calling
  > select().  Fixes a race condition that can result in xterm printing
  > "malloc: recursive call" on exit.  OK deraadt@, tested by many. (millert@)
