Indeed, it makes perfect sense and would fully explain the problems we see. >The reason that it worked with the libXt from 4.1.0 is that that one >came from a binary distribution compiled before OSX-10.1. Uhm, I have always compiled XFree86 myself and indeed, the one in the current distro is compiled on OS X 10.1. The difference is that the 4.2.0 series is using the two-level namespace, while the previous versions used -flat_namespace together with -undefined suppress.
