So, what is the bug supposed to be? All I see is a script that
somebody me to run as root, but no description of the problem that
supposedly exists, or how the script "corrects" it.

Apple's X11 has library name bug
Wednesday, January 29, 2003 @ 12:00pm
The Fink Website recently posted a bug report with
Apple's X11 X Window System: "While Apple's X11 works
just fine with existing binaries, it has a bug in the
install name of the libraries that can cause some
software to build incorrectly, and will break
forward-compatibility with future X11 releases. Ben
Hines has created a script that you can use that will
fix the install_name entries in Apple's X11 libraries,
but it will not repair software you have already built
against the broken libraries."
So is the script safe?
