Thats one for Mark... sounds like xpm hasn't been recompiled...

host.def appears to be where you put local definitions. It appears to get
ignored if you invoke imake via xmkmf. A couple of things. Firstly make sure
that the path to imake is /usr/X11R6.1/bin/imake and secondly touch
/usr/X11R6.1/lib/X11/config/host.def - let me know how you get on.

I did nearly produce an exim set for RiscBSD but (a) it compiles pretty much
out of the box and (b) it has compile-time configuration options (which should
not usually be left as their default values) (c) Philip Hazel (the author)
would probably point out that it is still an early beta version and you
shouldn't be using it unless you are prepared to recompile it every month or
two (new release versions appear roughly monthly). I decided to let people
roll-their-own.
