If you put the following in site.def, you'll be able to build X11R6.1 on
NetBSD/pmax. This will tell the X build process that you don't want to
build an X server (which you cannot with X11R6 for the pmax) and that
you don't have shared libraries (which NetBSD/pmax does not yet have)

I'm running with this setup, and I don't care too much about the missing
X server as my DECStation is placed in the basement and I'm using an
X terminal at my office.
