Yep, are you sure you got what you want? xdtm has been recently announced
in version 2.4.10, and the 2.5 file is about one year old (on exports)!

At least, i've succesfully compiled xdtm-2.4.10, and had a couple of
patches sent back to the authors.

>: Has this been ported to 386bsd?  If so, is there an ftp site i can get it from?

Yes, i have a compiled xpm library. Not yet on any ftp site, but could
load it up onto the local university's server. It's compiled with
gcc-2.3.3, so it will require a 387 or 486DX to run (for some deficiency
in the current FP emulator).
Note that Rich Murphey is attepting to get a list of contributed
programs compiled with gcc-1.39 in order to put it somewhere on ftp
servers. Maybe, this would be the better place in future.
