 * The ldconfig database is used only by the dynamic linker "ld.so".
 * The static linker "ld" does not use it at all.  If you want "ld" to
 * find libgnumalloc, then you need to either add "-L/usr/lib/compat"
 * to its command line arguments, or create a symbolic link
 * "/usr/lib/libgnumalloc.so.2.0 -> /usr/lib/compat/libgnumalloc.so.2.0".

This answer is correct in the regular sense, but not for this
particular case.  Your problem is that you have old imake config files 
(they are in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config).
