What I meant was, did this occur during ./configure, during make, or while
running, and what was printed out just before and just after?  (Not that
it matters anymore; see below.)

OK.

In that case, I think the advice is not to compile against the 3.X headers
if you want to run it with the 4.0 shared libraries.  Headers should be
compatible with libraries, and I don't see any way around this.

If we are talking about xdvik: using the `x' keystroke while xdvi open
or opening xdvi with 

xdvi +expert

makes no difference: there is margin on the right of the window, but
no buttons in either cases.

I ran 

$ strace -o xdvi-strace.txt xdvi konyorges/2000/proposal.dvi &

and put  xdvi-strace.txt  at

http://moni.msci.memphis.edu/~mw/xdvi-strace.txt

In what context?

Is this different from what you were reporting earlier?

I just did (for xdvi-22.29):
  ./configure --with-tetex
  make
  TEXMFMAIN=/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf TEXMFCNF=/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf/web2c 
./xdvi /tmp/small2e
and the buttens were not missing.

One warning (error?) was displayed, though:
  ./xdvint_line: No such file or directory

>   the 'x' keystroke

No buttons with xdvik. Or, more precise, the place for the buttinlist
is there, but it is empty.

Have you tried --
plain (non-k) xdvi?
xdvi +expert
the 'x' keystroke

What happens in each of the above cases?

I can confirm that. It even happens for me if I recompile xdvi. Running
xdvi against the XFree-4.01 shared libs shows this problem. Running the
same binary arainst the XFree-3.?? libraries works ok.
