I'm getting ready to build X11R6.3 from sources - in looking over the NetBSD
cf file in the binary distribution, I found the following bit of code:

! XCOMM set to YES when building non-pic static libs
! #ifdef SeparateSharedCompile
! #undef SeparateSharedCompile
! #endif
! #define SeparateSharedCompile NO
! 
! #ifdef SharedDataSeparation
! #undef SharedDataSeparation
! #endif
! #define SharedDataSeparation NO
! 
! XCOMM set to YES when building non-pic static libs
! #ifdef ForceNormalLib
! #undef ForceNormalLib
! #endif
! #define ForceNormalLib YES

There appears to be a bit of schizophrenia here - ForceNormalLib is set for
"non-pic static libs", while the other two variables are set the opposite
way.  Is this done on purpose, or is there an error here?

Thanks.
