 Sorry for the noise.  I've misunderstood the scope of the compat packages.  I
 thought they were to designed to allow prebuilt 6.x binaries to run on 7.x,
 but I guess that only works if all of the dependencies are core FreeBSD
 libraries, not on the ports like X11.
 
 It works fine if I arrange to use the 6.x X11 libraries.  Is there a correct
 place to install these or is LD_LIBRARY_PATH the only solution?
