X11R6.4 compiles on HP-UX (10.20, at least), right out of the box.  I
ran it on a 715 (or was that a 735?) for a while (for some reason that
I can't remember).  I seem to recall that I compiled the server from
the XFree 3.3.x sources once also.  (I really only wanted the XFree
xterm.)

Anyway, it works, but it doesn't have any of the fancy color-recovery
extensions that the "real" HP-UX X server comes with.  It probably
also won't work with anything but really old graphics hardware, but it
would be worth a try...
