    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?

If you are going to leave the installed stuff under /n/color/share/ instead of
later moving it to /, you'll have to have DESTDIR set during "make World" as
well.
