Then using the X11R6 binaries from the 2.1 release you will get
+ errors like:
+ # mkfontdir
+ mkfontdir: undefined symbol: 'astpending' 12
+ Segmentation fault (core dumped)
+
+ this is due to a little problem affecting the compatibility between
+ the OpenBSD/arc port (on which the X11R6 clients were build) and
+ OpenBSD/pmax. You can work around this problem by using the arc
+ version of the shared libc instead of the pmax one. You may get a copy
+ of the OpenBSD/arc 2.1 libc.so.16.1 from
+ here . Simply download it and do the following:
+ # cd /usr/lib
+ # mv libc.so.16.1 original_libc.so.16.1
+ # cp /where_you_have_downloaded_it_to/libc.so.16.1 .
+ # chown root.bin libc.so.16.1
+ # chmod 444 libc.so.16.1
+
+ Please be careful while doing this - because the libc is a very
+ sensitive part of the system. You can remove the original_libc.so.16.1
+ after the next reboot if everything is working fine.
