 Darn!
 
 I forgot to write down one instruction for the (pathetic) work around
 I posted. Before running "make install" again (after the error) you
 need to delete the contents of /usr/X11R6/man/cat3/ where the Xdbe*
 man pages get installed.
 
 Also there's a mistake in the last paragraph of the bug report:
 /usr/XF4/xc/doc/man/dbe
 should be 
 /usr/XF4/xc/doc/man/Xext/dbe
 
 Once you get it installed, run "man XdbeGetBackBufferAttibutes" and
 you'll see a screwed up subject line on this entry. This is the man
 page that is installed just before the one that causes the error
 (XdbeGetVisualInfo).
