** Motif dialog boxes lose on Irix.

Did anyone bother to note what version of Irix Larry Auton was running
when he wrote that? I found this note *after* I had already built
XEmacs for both Irix 5.3 and Irix 6.2. I used the Motif dialogs on
both, and both of them are running just fine, thank you. If, as I
suspect, Mr. Auton was running a pre-5.3 version of Irix, that should be
noted in the PROBLEMS file.
No, I have seen the problem on an incompletely patched 6.2
too. Linking with motif on that box makes the x-copy-primary-selection
segfault within the motif routines.
I don't remember *which* patch is needed though. Sorry.
OG.
PS: If --with-mule then you need --with-xim=xlib too
