X vs MacII

I installed X11R3 from the MIT tapes, and I have two questions. I have
A/UX 1.1.
1. The man pages for XmacII state that "Color and multiple screens are
supported under A/UX Release 1.1 and later." The installation notes in
server/ddx/macII/README state that "These Apple X11 drivers. . .support
a single monochrome (1 bit deep) screen. . ." I'm wondering which of
these statements is correct. I can't invoke XmacII with the -depth 8
option, so I assume it's the latter. Is there any hope of color and/or
multiple screens on the Mac?
2. I tried unsuccessfully to implement the "Purdue patches". Could
someone who succeeded in doing this outline the necessary changes to the
makefiles?
