Since installing 2.0.5R, I have found that cc (ld) no longer searches
in /usr/X11R6/lib for -lX11, etc.  I have searched the man pages and
found no way to add this directory to the standard ld search path.
ldconfig is not the answer, since it only establishes hints for dynamicly
loaded libraries.  Is the only answer to link the .a files into /usr/lib?
I know things were working under 2.0R, but I can't remember if I made
the links or not.  Any help is appreciated.
