Well, rcsid is normal. It's the RCS source code control string.

As for no match for -lXm. libXm.a (so. whatever) is the motif library
which should come with lesstif. So I'm guessing you had a problem in
the lib directory of your compile. Or you have to do an install of the
library before finishing the compile. Or your not including the source
path in the link. (like -L../lib)
