Mmm, I guess the problem is to do with xvnc, or perhaps
using a display number !=0 ?

If you open two windows and in the first type:
	Xvnc :99 -once -geometry 1024x768 -localhost -rfbport 5999 &
	sleep 1
	rio  &

and in the second type
	vncviewer localhost:99

you will get rio, but when you sweep out a 9term window it will
be black (well, mine is). Acme and sam(term) also appear broken
but if you type at the window, eg xterm, things seem to work.

I am not just grumbling at random, I will look into it, I just
want confirmation that its a bug and not my finger trouble.
