1) We are (hopefully ...) talking about the libXp which is a different animal.
   libXp may or may not come with your X11 libraries/server. You won't be able
   to _easily_ get it elsehwere (well, as opposed to libXpm which one often has to
   install manually).

2) add --disable-build-21 to the commandline and given that the developers 
   meanwhile get things sorted out you won't need the libXp.

3) IIRC we even try to make the 2.1 library built w/o libXp.
   In fact currently all we really use from libXp is an interface
   to ask for the version - this is all not yet written stuff.


Hope this helps to avoid confusion and fear of the new 2.1 stuff :-)
