Sorry, I missed that. I will move to SVN.

The principal problem I found is that one supposedly needs the
complete nx-X11 sources to compile NX. That seems to not be true, I
have compiled nxcomp+nxagent on both i386 and amd64 without nx-X11,
and it appears to work well (yes, I've tested it). I guess that this
problem disappeared in the 2.0 release of NX.

NX 2.0 also appears to be 64-bit safe now, it worked for me on amd64
and configure.in has special provisions for AMD64 which indicate that
it's intended to work on 64-bit architectures.

Have I missed anything more?
