Which version of xtank are you using?  On 'gatekeeper.dec.com', I found version
1.2 - it can be setup to use the 'sun lwp' stuff for the threads...  I have it
working (mostly) on a sun3, but I am having a slight problem dynamically
loading in the robot programs - I get the following error from the linker:

ld: /lib/libX11.a(__.SYMDEF): rd_shsb: can't read struct dynamic for
shared library /lib/libX11.a

But, here's the command line that xtank passed to ld:

/bin/ld -x -N -A ~mcross/xwins/xtank/xtank.exe -T (some address) -o
/tmp/xtank.output ~mcross/xwins/xtank/Programs/DJCmove.o -lm -lc >
/tmp/xtank.error 2>&1

It doesn't include xtank in the libraries!  Might it have something to
do with the -A option - xtank.exe uses libX11.a... HELP!
