I'm trying to build Viking (open source GPS software built on gtk) on my 
openSolaris 2008.5 (updated to snv_91) Ultra 40.  I updated gtk from pgk.  
However, I got an error in the viking build script telling me that GTK didn't 
pass a test, and that the installation is defective.  I decided to try building 
my own gtk and its dependencies.  Pango and glib went without a hitch.  Cairo 
required setting CFLAGS to something special for POSIX compliance, but I 
figured that out.  But when it came time to compile gtk itself, my luck ran 
out.  I set the X-libraries and X-includes shell variables to /usr/lib/X11 and 
/usr/include/X11 (respectively), and when the configure script got to "checking 
to see if xReply requires <X11/extensions/XIproto.h>" appparently it never 
received a reply, so it gave me the error "X11 is too old," which I really 
don't believe.  I searched the net, but I couldn't find anything about the 
problem.  If anyone can help me out, I'd appreciate it.

P.S.  I'm using gcc installed via IPS, but I don't think that's relevant here.
