That's strange. libXaw3d* belongs in /usr/X11R6/lib. Or did you build
Xaw3d yourself with "xpkgwedge"? ["xpkgwedge" is a system for
installing all X packages into /usr/pkg, rather that /usr/X11R6. I
can't help you with that.]

A quick fix is to add /usr/pkg/lib to LD_LIBRARY_PATH. (See rtld(1).)
The more enduring solution depends on whether you built "GV" yourself,
or if not, where you got the binary. What's "GV"?
