Support of 1 bit visuals from SGI's X server.

[James Helman]

There are some problems with alignment and drawing 1 bit deep visuals
that existed in 3.2 through 3.3.1 X servers.  It is possible to
partially kludge around the problem by rewriting the Xlib routine you
are using.  Not pretty.  But in an emergency, I did this for XPutImage().

A much better option is to see if SGI can supply a fixed server.  SGI
was aware of the problem when 3.3.1 came out.  We don't have 3.3.2,
but a fixed server might have been included.

I think we're all looking forward to wonderful things in 4.0.  Does
anyone know how X fares on the VGX?  Is raster op performance better?
