Actually, it's between 0.86 and 0.87.

Using this command on both:

xmame.x11 -x11 2 popeye

I get video on 0.86, but a blank window (with the game music playing) on
0.87 and the same on 0.88 with "xmame.x11 -vidmod 1 popeye".

I see these warnings reported on the compile of xmame-0.87, that don't
appear on 0.86 or 0.88:

src/unix/video-drivers/x11.c:62: warning: excess elements in struct
initializer
src/unix/video-drivers/x11.c:62: warning: (near initialization for
`x_func[1]')
src/unix/video-drivers/x11.c:62: warning: excess elements in struct

src/unix/video-drivers/x11.c:62: warning: excess elements in struct
initializer
src/unix/video-drivers/x11.c:62: warning: (near initialization for
`x_func[1]')

So something that changed between 0.86 and 0.87 is the culprit.

My main desktop computer is a 2.4 GHz Pentium 4.  My game machine is a
1.6GHz Celeron.  They both exhibit this problem.  I have been doing this
testing just now on my desktop machine.

I will do that tomorrow and provide you with a report; it's getting rather
late here now.
