Was the version that "make install" puts there set-uid, or set-gid?  If so and
you are running SunOS >=4.0 && <= 4.1 then the .so file *must* be in the
standard place (/usr/lib, or /usr/local/lib).  [This is true *only* for set-uid,
or set-gid files]

You don't have the search path for bitmaps & app-defaults correct.  If you have
all the patches and the problem still exists fix it by hand.  I don't rember
what files need to be changed, grep for /usr/local/X11 [or whereever the system
was designed to be installed, *NOT* where you told it to go, the mit-default!]
in all the .c & .h files in $TOP/mit/lib (you may be safe if you do just the
Athena Widgets).
