Does anybody outthere use imake(n) at all ???? This program preprocesses
the Imakefile into a Makefile. This is done base upon some rules and defaults
(look at /usr/lib/X11/config !) And there is a special config-file: at386.cf
You just have to edit it (i.e setting the flags at the begin of the file and
defining your real platform if you're using the X386 binaries. There are some
important flags:

	HasGcc			Whether to use gcc or not (and instead link
				explicitely the gcc-gnulib)
	
	HasSockets		Use the real (OS-dep) socket-lib(s) or the
				emulation-lib.

All the rest is computed internally. Nice idea, isn't it ?
