I have a problem configuring.

I tried to make X to sit in /n/color/share/usr/bin/X11R3, with
the obvious lib and include libraries.  I used the site.def file
which follows and made the World.  To install I did
make DESTDIR=/n/color/share install.  The files all went to
the expected places (/n/color/share/usr/.../X11R3/...) but
X can't find its fonts.  What did I do wrong?
