Just downloaded this - it works on my 12" powerbook with 10.2.6
& Apple's X11 public beta 3. It also works for me on 10.2.3. fantastic!

Originally I had XDarwin installed (non apple XFree86). This didn't work,
so I dumped it and installed Apple's X11 instead.

Does anyone know when the altered source is to be integrated into
the current uqlx sources? Also, which gcc was used? I've tried and
failed to build a working copy from the current sources many times :(

seems to work fine for some people but I have no way to test.

which gcc? Versions 3.1-3.3.1 have the bug mentioned in README, this
also affects hppa, ppc and mips boxes at least.
Alternatives would be
  - use earlier gcc, on ppc 2.95, mips/SPARC/hppa anything 2.6.2-2.8
  - patch compiler (patch in README)
  - disable global register usage in QL68000.h. To do this for SPARC
    you would uncomment these lines:

        #ifdef SPARC
        register uw16  *pc asm("g5");
        register gshort  code asm("g6");
        register int   nInst asm("g7");
        #define GREGS
        #define MANYREGS
        #endif

that doesn't look familiar and may be something else than the mentioned
gcc bug.
A gdb baktrace would be definitely helpful.
