I have just posted my patch to enable the new Athena widget support in configure to xamecs-patchs, msg-id <87zovgc33g.fsf(a)inanna.danann.net&gt;. If I can get a bunch of people to test this, that would be great. I tried as many different breakages of the Athena install as I could find, but only had the one machine on which to do this. Let me know if anything breaks for you, especially if the script makes the wrong guess about what your libraries are or where the right headers are.
