Darrell,

  push it!  Confirmed. Built with patch, restored twinrc containing:

[ThirdPartyWM]
WMAdditionalArguments=
WMExecutable=twin

  Installed patched tdebase, startx -> no hang!  Good catch. It would have taken
me a week to figure out the problem preventing start was the 3 spurious lines in
twinrc!

  Now if you can pull the same rabbit out of the hat with png15, we are in
business :)
