Why is glxgears in X11/demo? All others (bsd, linux) store it in X11/bin


It really doesn't matter where it is since there is no set standard,
and in this case I've been told that programs in "demo" directories
mean "unsupported", i.e. if they work great, if not you get to keep
both pieces :)

I wouldn't say unsupported, but "less supported".   We'll fix bugs, but
not at a high priority - after all, we don't expect glxgears to be
critical to anyone's ability to use the machine.   (There are things in
/usr/openwin/demo on the other hand that I plan to move to /usr/X11/bin
instead of /usr/X11/demo, because they should be more supported & easier
to find - xev, for example.)
