Yes, this fixed things for 4.1.0.1.  I have no idea why it doesn't default to 
100.   It did when i used to use the CVS.   anyways it should have defaulted 
to 75x75 or 100x100 not some freaky 87x96.  Something is wrong there.   I 
just added -dpi 100 to the defaultserverarg variable in the startx script.
