I built XEmacs for the first time on Solaris 2.5 this past week and

went trivially with two minor problems: The X11 search path in
configure puts /usr/local/X11 ahead of the standard libraries in
/usr/openwin/lib, but links from /usr/openwin/lib leading to runtime
errors if a newer X11 is in /usr/local. I fixed this temporarily by
forcing /usr/openwin to the front of the search path.
I've had to do similar stuff here to avoid a broken installation of
X11R6 in /usr/local that was built when we were back on Digital Unix
3.2C or so - Digital Unix 4.0's X is fine how it is (as is Solaris 2.5
and above's, if i remember correctly...)
The only image type I could make work was xpm, however without access
to a Sun console I was displaying on an Intel Linux/XFree86 server. Is
this supposed to work?[1] All of the image libraries were hand-built
against X stuff in /usr/openwin.
Footnotes:
[1] Doesn't work means the colors came out psychedelic. The image
didn't appear to be rotated and/or reversed, but all the colors were
wrong.
Internet Explorer for Solaris (i was just curious, honest) did this for me
last year too, running it off a sun and displaying on my 16-bit Linux X
display
