No, they are not good. The problem is that your version of the XPM library doesn't allow absolute path names to be used which breaks the gimp XPM plug-in. The fact that other tools work doesn't prove that your verson of libxpm is 'good'.

F-prot is on crack and the F-prot people have been told about this a long time ago. The fact that they didn't fix that yet doesn't shed a good light on them.
