dnl daunting task, fraut with all kinds of traps.  Fortunately, Autoconf
dnl provides us with some help, namely the macro [[AC_PATH_X]] and 
dnl [[AC_PATH_XTRA]].  The former searches the directories where the
dnl X11 include files and the library files reside.  The latter is an
dnl enhanced version that:
dnl  1. computes the C compiler flags required by X11;
dnl  2. computes the linker flags required by X11;
dnl  3. checks for special libraries that some systems need in order to
dnl     compile X11 programs;
