Unfortunately, we've never released documentation or source for the
old Sun-specific Xinerama protocol extension. We have released patches
for Solaris 9 & 10 to allow those releases to be compatible with the
public Xinerama 1.1 from X.Org, but not for Solaris 7 or 8.
We should be releasing the panoramiXproto.h soon though - the Sun-specific
changes are:

+++ panoramiXproto.h Tue Apr 18 17:42:17 2006
