Thanks. I think I must have fallen into the second category, as the
first solution (which is the one I had run across via google) didn't
work. I do, it turns out, have both openmotif and lesstif installed.
Fortunately, I did succeed in building it on a 7.2 system and
installing it on my 7.3, so I'm now writing this is emacs again
(phew). Ah, if I was only satisfied with the rpm for xemacs... But
no... I have to have the cutting edge!

Yep, and it worked with -nw too. Unfortunately, the font colors when
I run -nw are black on black, so it's not very useful (and I've never
debugged it).
