For instance, I've used the following (rather trivial) patch to
get XBoard built with libXaw7 (on Debian etch):

I've tested it a bit and haven't seen anything wrong with this
build.
As for the 3D-look, I suggest the following files for
/etc/X11/app-defaults. One may wish to compare the ``Xaw

$ xboard -xrm '*customization: ' &
$ xboard -xrm '*customization: -color' &
