I think this problem is caused by a wrong FreeBSD version indication in the Imake template files: they are still at FreeBSD 2.1.5 and thus believe gnumalloc would be required (/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config/FreeBSD.cf). (gnumalloc has been abandoned by the time phkmalloc got into operation, it was only there since it used to be much better than the old and rotten BSD malloc.) -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
