It's great that there's a free pico clone, but I see namespace
confusion and conflicts on systems with the sort of tip that
uses /etc/remote, which is not currently in Debian, but
should be.

I consider the genclass prototypes as an STL even though the compiler isn't
responsible for the templating. Anyway, I suppose it's not really relevant.

They're in /usr/include/g++
For container classes, you'll need to use /usr/bin/genclass

The best option is replacing the XF86_SVGA binary from xserver-svga with one
from XFree86 3.2A -- it has less problems and also supports modes with more
colors than 8bpp.
