- This is a nasty memory leak in Xwindows and is a priority 1 bug. We
- received a bug fix followed by an early release of 3.2.2 but the problem
- still persisted. We received yet another bug fix from IBM today and
- now the leak seems to be fixed. You may want to call IBM support and
- specifically ask for the "Xwindows memory leak" fix.
