That should probably be:

	/srvd -> /afs/sipb.mit.edu/system/i386_linux1/srvd.77.1elf
	/usr/athena -> /srvd/usr/athena
	/usr/X11R6  -> /srvd/usr/X11R6

You should have /bin/athena and /etc/athena local; /etc/athena in
particular, since zhm writes its pid file there and you'll be putting
your srvtab in /etc/athena if you get one.

We should proabbly have our own build of xmh which looks in
/usr/athena for its app-defaults if we're going to play games like
this... I'll deal with that later.

Dash and Mwm should look for their app-defaults in
/usr/athena/lib/X11/app-defaults.  I don't know if they're actually
built correctly, though.
