Don't use the Xt library in the OpenWindows distribution. One of the MIT
patches to libXt introduced a version check, which has widgets checking the
intrinsics version upon initialization.  Probably you recompiled libXaw
against that new libXt, and now all the Athena widgets expect an R4 intrinsics
and complain when the unpatched libXt from Openwindows is linked at run time.

BTW, relying on a properly set LD_LIBRARY_PATH seems like a bad idea.
Instead you can link the appropriate libraries into /usr/local/lib,
where they will be found by default.
