Hi,
I am running under SR9.7 on the Apollos. The libraries which I have to
use has been developed using sys5. 

When I try to put the Xwindows' Athena widgets together with these libraries
the linker is not happy.

On consulting the Apollo documentation I find that *yes* one can run sys5
applications in bsd shells and vice versa. But alas, I can not find anything
explicit on what to do when one wants to link bsd and sys5 libraries *and*
still retain their integrity.

So I have a problem...
and I also have a bad gut feeling...
has *anyone* out there any clue of what the solution might be? 

Please email me any answers and I will post a summary

Thanks in advance!
