Well I found the needed missing libraries.  They were:

yum install Xaw3d-devel libXp-devel libXaw-devel

and I also did

yum install libXt-devel libext-devel readline-devel

That seemed to make ./configure happy except for the gif library which
yum could not find so I configured without it.

But ./configure appears to have made a Makefile, not a GNUMake

Compile went OK, only I have no idea where it put the binary.

Will study the makefile later and see.

Meanwhile, back to pixen....

Thanks
