Hi Gerrit,
	Not quite there yet...

	I went to '/usr/X11R6/bin'.  There is no file 'libX11.dll.a', but there 
is a 'libX11.dll', so I did 'ln -s libX11.dll libX11.a'.  I closed the 
window, opened a new bash session, and tried compiling.  I got the same 
error (below).

	Did I pick the right directory?  Did I pick the right file?

	Charles
