An ideal fix would be to get the autoconf boys to include .dylib in
the
set of extensions probed for, but it would take many years for that to
propagate into the field adequately.
That bug has already been filed and fixed in upstream autoconf as of a
couple months ago when this issue was originally discussed.
Perhaps a suitable compromise is to ship libXt.a. I don't think it
even has to be a real library; any old file would satisfy the
standard autoconf probe. A quick test here suggested that even
ten-year-old versions of autoconf would work after
sudo touch /usr/X11/lib/libXt.a
No, you can just use the --x-include=/usr/X11/include --x-lib=/usr/X11/
lib options to configure, and I'd rather not ship dummy files just to
get antiquated autoconf macros working.
