From: Yoav Yerushalmi <yoav@MIT.EDU>

System name:		deathtongue
Type and version:	SPARC/IPX 7.7G (2 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		cgthree

What were you trying to do?
	use imake  (BIG mistake) :-)

What's wrong:
	imake SUCKS!!...  but this time the templates are broken..
	it adds -B/usr/gcc/lib (which is correct for 7.6, but breaks
		under 7.7).  this makes imake break with those templates
		so that now xmkmf which uses those by default generates
		broken Makefiles.

What should have happened:
	the templates need to be fixed so that -B/usr/gcc/lib or whatever
		isn't there.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	The Bible.
