You are probably talking about the Xaw header files, which were moved
into a subdirectory in R4.  Look at /usr/include/X11/Xaw and see if the
"missing" files are lurking there.

Perhaps.  If the internals have changed from R3 to R4, you may find
yourself using the wrong include files for the libraries.

The XShape* routines come from -lXext, the X extension library.  They
are part of the SHAPE extension.

The Xt stuff I haven't much of a clue on.  The names look to me like
interfaces to some sort of widget or other, but the leading Xt makes
them look like toolkit routines.  Perhaps they are widget interfaces
whose names were changed to reflect reality?

(I think it's the Xaw headers that moved.  Check all subdirectories
of /usr/include/X11....)
