Minor updates about libungif and Exceed 6.x.

43115:8cf8fe6b2497

`xset fp rehash'.

* Large file support is disabled on HP-UX.  See the comments in
src/s/hpux10.h.

* Crashes when displaying uncompressed GIFs with version
libungif-4.1.0 are resolved by using version libungif-4.1.0b1.

* Font Lock displays portions of the buffer in incorrect faces.

By far the most frequent cause of this is a parenthesis `(' or a brace

(either explicitly with the -fn option or implicitly with X resources)
then the fonts may appear "too tall".  The actual character sizes are
correct but there is too much vertical spacing between rows,  which 
gives the appearance of "double spacing".  

To prevent this,  turn off the Exceed's "automatic font substitution"
feature (in the font part of the configuration window).

* Failure in unexec while dumping emacs on Digital Unix 4.0

This problem manifests itself as an error message

The symptoms are that Emacs does not completely erase blank areas of the
screen during scrolling or some other screen operations (e.g., selective
display or when killing a region).  M-x recenter will cause the screen
to be completely redisplayed and the "extra" characters will disappear.

This is known to occur under Exceed 6, and possibly earlier versions as
well.  The problem lies in the X-server settings.

There are reports that you can solve the problem with Exceed by
running `Xconfig' from within NT, choosing "X selection", then
un-checking the boxes "auto-copy X selection" and "auto-paste to X
selection".
