Erk. I always hate this bit.
Contrary to statements of mine previously, it seems that the Debian
xaw-wrappers package is still alive and working, even in unstable.
This makes the issue of incorrect dynamic linking somewhat less serious,
I think, as the end-users have a way out if they have dynamic linking
issues.
This could be documented in the PROBLEMS file like this:
*** Messages about dynamic symbols changing size
When XEmacs is built dynamically linked to the flat Athena widget
library but it finds a 3D Athena variant with the same name at runtime.
This can be solved with the xaw-wrappers package under Debian and by
checking the runtime path in /etc/ld.so.conf under other distributions.
