IIRC, you need to reinstall xaw3d (fink reinstall xaw3d xaw3d-shlibs) since
it stores its stuff outside of /sw.

This is no longer true with the latest versions of the xaw3d package. It installs in /sw now. In fact, the Xaw3d header files are found:

Xm/Xm.h comes from lesstif, but this is not necessary. I think the problem is already there after the first "warning". Instead of "Could not find..." it should have said

checking for the Athena widgets
checking for threeDClassRec in -lXaw3d... yes

It would be interesting to see the corresponding output in the config.log file. Maybe it's not /sw/lib/libXaw3d.dylib that is at fault, but some of the /usr/X11/lib/libX*.dylibs it depends upon.

Also the segmentation fault could give some hints. It is not the

> _XF86BigfontQueryFont: could not attach shm segment

that is causing this. This message has always been there for xemacs-21.5.9. Is there a crash log?

BTW, I run xemacs-21.5.9-3 on Apple's X11 without problems.
