When the check for Xpm version >=3.4g is done, I initially got a failure
even though I have 3.4k installed.
I am specifying both --with-xpm-includes and --with-xpm-library.
I tracked the problem down to the following. In the gcc line used to do
this check, the order of the -L arguments needs changing, so that the
directory provided by --with-xpm-library overrides the directory where
libX11 etc are. (i.e. in line 2481 of configure, the xpm_LIBS and X_LIBS
fields need swapping. Then, if a newer version of xpm is installed in a
non-standard place, and it occludes an obsolete version in the X11
installation, it will be picked up correctly.
