What i was trying to do: link a Motif application like it says to do
in the release notes (use the X11R4 libraries).

What was the problem: It didn't seem to want to find the libraries in
the x11r4 locker.
	I found out this was because `fs sysname' on this machine
returns `sun4m_51', and the directory `/mit/x11/sun4lib' is a symlink
to `install/@sys/usr/lib' -- but the only Sun directories in
/mit/x11/install are `sun4c_411' and `sun4c_51' -- a `c' instead of an
`m'. :(                   ^               ^

	Using -L/mit/x11/install/sun4c_51/usr/lib seems to work fine,
so maybe y'all could make /mit/x11/install/sun4m_51 a symlink to
/mit/x11/install/sun4c_51 ?...

love, ed
