I have no solution, but can also report puzzlement that it doesn't  
heed the display's bell settings.  The bell is rung by XBell() in  
XGServer.m (in back/X11), which would seem to be the standard way to  
do this.  I'm wondering if some type of X initialization is not  
performed by back on startup, causing user settings not to be picked up.
