Xt does not have to come before Xmu, Xt does not depend upon Xmu at all.  This
is very desirable, since Xt is a standard and Xmu is just a bunch of stuff :-).

In section 2.7.1 item #10 of the R3 Athena Widget docuemtation it states
explicitly the order to use when linking an application that uses the
Athena Widget set.

>> cc -o <application> <application>.c -lXaw -lXmu -lXt -lX11
