Only Scotty1024's ports , the gnuchess port (disign256's) and java apps are not using th patched libX11, AFAIK.
Putting the appropriate refresh calls in apps wth complex gtk+ interfaces is very time-consuming, and prone to errors (i.e. bit refreshing when you should have refreshed the screen).
The patched libX11 makes the display refresh automatic by monitoring when there have been commands sent to the X server (or received from it? Ups, I don't remember which function I hooked O:-) ). It tries to minimize double-refreshing by using a timeout...
