I think this change:

http://axiom.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/axiom/branches/build-improvement
s/src/sman/Makefile.in?view=diff&pathrev=288&r1=287&r2=288

is not correct. The patch I sent to Gaby is here:

http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/axiom-developer/2006-09/msg00297.ht
ml

includes the line:

+LDFLAGS= -L${LIB} -lspad ${LDF} -lspad ${AXIOM_X11_LDFLAGS}

and

 <<sman>>=
 ${OUT}/sman: ${SMANOBJS} ${MIDOBJ}/sman.o
        @ echo 13 linking sman
-       @ ${CC} -o ${OUT}/sman ${MIDOBJ}/sman.o ${SMANOBJS}
+       @ ${CC} -o ${OUT}/sman ${MIDOBJ}/sman.o ${SMANOBJS} ${LDFLAGS}

but in fact ${AXIOM_X11_LDFLAGS} is not needed for sman.

I think we need a more "delicate" approach to providing the right
libraries in the right place, i.e. more autoconf variables.
