I hadn’t found that index, which was certainly a great improvement on manually searching a bunch of ISOs!  Unfortunately, it appears that the patches I’m hunting aren’t there either.

I suspect it’s likely that they were not very widely distributed: there are plenty of the X11R5 version (pl7) and then the X11R6 version (pl10), but the intermediate changes have proven elusive.  If anyone is in contact with Chris P. Ross, formerly cross at eng.md.edu, who seems to have been the maintainer during this period, I’d appreciate an intro: I suspect he’s my last hope.

Thanks for the pointer though!
