X11R4 with fix-1 and gcc funny stuff

I have built X11R4 using gcc 1.35 and have some problems. Any ideas?
The susp character is ctrl/c instead of ctrl/z. I am using tcsh. The funny
thing about this is that I also built a server using GreenHills C and the
susp character is ctrl/z as it should be. Something is wrong with the
GNU C version.
I have a menu item to exit from X Windows. It does xlwins to find the id
of the console window and then xkill -id to kill it. This worked fine under
X11R3 but it hangs with X11R4.
I execute X windows using the command exec X -screen0 -depth 8. That worked
fine with X11R3 but with X11R4 I cannot log back in after exiting from X.
I get the message login incorrect after typing in any login name. I don't
get as far as being asked for the password.
Note: If you build X11R4 with GreenHills C the code generated for
server/ddx/mfb/mfbcmap.c is wrong. Thanks to Steve Green for pointing this out
to me. It saved me much grief.
