Yes - that appears to be the Way Things Are. You can understand, I think, why I was uncomfortable with that... The implication also appeared to be that "internally" the X system "knew" that 32 might not mean 32 on some platforms. The intent seemed to be that you just pass the Atom as normal, but set the size to 32 on any host where the "true" size was >= 32 and leave it at that. That did not make me any happier about this as a solution. > > > I have not been able to find that written down anywhere, either, but > > that appears to be the Way It Works now... > > Would be nice to have a reference, but probably it's not worth the > effort...
