[rescue] Xsgi and Xinerama

Hello everyone,
I've got an R10k @ 175MHz Indigo2 with dual-SolidIMPACT config running
IRIX 6.5.19f on using SGI's Xinerama extensions.
OpenGL and SDL applications are having fits.. I suspect it has something
to do with their Xinerama implementation (or lack thereof compared to the
XFree86 version)... I've hacked my /usr/lib/X11/xdm/Xservers line, I'm
running at 24-bit... It just seems that Xinerama doesn't want to play nice
(but I LIKE Xinerama, and I like having one desktop span both my 19" SGI
monitors).
So, out of frustration, I am wondering if anyone here running IRIX
6.5.20, or 6.5.21 (6.5.22 if it is out yet), with similar graphics
hardware (is there one Xsgi server for all IMPACT-class boards?), can
possibly send me a copy of their Xsgi binary, so I can try and graft that
into my system to see if maybe 6.5.19 is just plain quirky. (Not expecting
a miracle, but figured I'd give it a shot). Other suggestions are also
welcome.
/usr/gfx/gfxinfo yields the following:
