I have just compiled X11R4 on a Sun-3 under SunOS 4.1.  It has been installed
properly and it runs fine.  When I was compiling xdbx 2.1 I found two
very annoying things that I didn't know how to fix.
	1)  imake is looking for Imake.template.  There is no such file.  There
            is an Imake.tmpl file.  Judging from the X distribution, Imake.tmpl
	    should be the file Imake looks for.  Since I have my IMAKEINCLUDE
	    environment variable set, there should be no problem.  What is 
	    supposed to go into Imake.template?
	2)  When I kludge the above problem by coping the file Imake.tmpl into
	    Imake.template, I get another problem.  The Makefile can't find 
	    libXext.a, which does exist.  When I get the settings of the 
	    variables when make executes, USRLIBDIR is set to /usr/lib, while
	    in my site.def file UsrLibDir (which should set USRLIBDIR) is 
	    set to /usr/local/lib.  WHAT AM I DOING WRONG!!!  Why won't imake
	    work for me?  Please let me know.
