Here is the error message(s) from config.cache

configure:4384: checking for XpmReadFileToXpmImage in -lXpm
configure:4403: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -R/usr/dept/xpm conftest.c -lXpm -lXpm

/* Override any gcc2 internal prototype to avoid an error. */
/* We use char because int might match the return type of a gcc2
    builtin and then its argument prototype would still apply. */
char XpmReadFileToXpmImage();

int main() {
XpmReadFileToXpmImage()
; return 0; }

Don't know if this helps much.
