You were probably using the 3.1.2S (release) libs, and the beta's have upped the minor version number on the various X libs (Xaw, Xlib, etc). ld just makes the mention that the versions are off in case you're interested. It doesn't appear to have any effect though, and if you pull down the libs from 3.1.2E (beta) that should fix it.
