      I just tried building Gnu Emacs with X11R3 support, and

   I'm told that you should go get libXMenu11.a from your X11R2
   installation and just drop it in place.  It should be fine at that
   point.

Unfortunately today I installed X11 for the first time, so I don't have an
X11R2 installation to get a libXMenu11.a from.  Any other suggestions?

Also, right afterwards I installed 18.52 with the HAVE_X_WINDOWS variable
set (or whatever it's name was) and it ran into problems compiling because
it was missing an include file from /usr/include/X11.  fonts.h
or something like that.  What can I do to compile a vanilla 18.52 on a new
sun after installing X11R3?  Given that everything is vanilla distributions
and installations, I'm getting kind of frustrated.
