Hey, i've noticed some people saying on IRC and randomly throughout the web
in places that the whole:
"link.sh: We don't need libXt!"
"link.sh: Removing libXt!"
thing is a bit scary if you're new to compiling vim or compiling stuff on
linux in general because you might think its actually going to remove libxt
from your whole system. Because of this, I have attached a very simple patch
to change the link.sh echos to say delinking instead of removing which
sounds quite a bit less scary.
Regards,
JD
