On IRIX, sawfish-capplet is failing to start due to a run-time link
problem; the following error is syslogged:

Mar 15 18:51:22 5B:aupair  rld[279306]: 279306:sawfish-capplet: rld: Fatal Error: attempted access to unresolvable symbol in /usr/athena/lib/libgnorba.so.28: gettext

We hacked a workaround into the build for this problem back when we
were testing 9.0 (see [8047] in source-reviewers), and I cannot
reproduce the problem after building the program from the 9.0 source
tree, so perhaps we just need to rebuild it for the IRIX 9.0 srvd.
Note that gettext is present in my newly built binary, but not in
/usr/athena/bin/sawfish-capplet:
