I've done some builds and checks:-

    The 9.3 version from my old Slackware box runs OK on my new box.

    I've compiled 9.4 on my new box with just "--with-screen=Motif"
    and that runs OK.

    I've compiled 9.5 on my new box with no patches at all and just
    "--with-screen=Motif", that fails with the above error.

So the error is something introduced between 9.4 (with no patches, at
least I think not) and 9.5 with no patches.

Which 9.5 is/was supposed to fix the problem if it's the one you think
it was, I could check that the patch is being applied correctly.
