First, most of the MIT-X stuff is avaliable; when you configured the machines
using /etc/setld -l, one of the subsets available is the unsuported MIT-X
stuff. With 4.2 in fact, subsets are X11R4 (i.e. there is even more contrib
stuff). As to 3D, the best software is DEC-Phigs+ which will cost you a
bundle but it does a lot + its close to being a standard (pending PEX).
To the best of my knowledge, none of the public-domain stuff come close.
