That is pretty close to correct.

The XWINDIRS line was the culprit.  I made a mistake and put $(FB) and
$(SHADOW) into the XWINDIRS variable.  $(FB) and $(SHADOW) refer to the fb
and shadow libraries, not the directories.  I have since corrected that by
changing $(FB) and $(SHADOW) to $(FBDIR) and $(SHADOWDIR).

I checked my patch email and it was in there, indeed.

If I recall correctly, there was some other problem with my patch, and I
think I failed to submit a fixed Imakefile to you.  I blamed you but it was
really just my fault :)

I'll repackage that patch soon and send it to you.

Harold
