Xaw3d hasn't been recompiled against 4.3.0 yet, and since libXt is 
static, the internal libXt for Xaw3d is still geared for 4.2.0. 
Actually, this is a "side" effect of the ongoing libXt brokeness.  At 
this point, it seems like there might be solution but it hasn't been 
fully worked out yet, see the Cygwin/XFree86 for more info.  As it 
stands, any shared "widget toolkit" libraries (lesstif, etc) linking to 
libXt will cause linked applications to fail.  Because of this, I've 
been delaying the rebuild of Xaw3d until libXt is fixed.  However, if it 
isn't in a few weeks, then I'll re-release the package with the 
static-only archive.  The static library ought to be ok, though, since 
compiling static doesn't seem to expose this problem in libXt.

Cheers,
Nicholas
