Works fine here on 5.2. What does 'ls -l /usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw3d.*' show?
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 400816 Mar 11 15:17 /usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw3d.a
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 13 Mar 11 15:17 /usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw3d.so -> libXaw3d.so.7
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 13 Mar 11 15:17 /usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw3d.so.6 -> libXaw3d.so.7

I found in the Xaw3d Makefile that the symlink libXaw3d.so.6 ->
libXaw.so.7 (actually libXaw3d.so.${XAWVER}) is only made when bin/XFree86
is installed (by XFree86-4-Server). So if you happen to have a system
without X server I guess the xfig port will fail because it looks for
libXaw.so.7 but finds only libXaw.so.6.
Shouldn't the Xaw3d Makefile test on XFREE86_VERSION instead of looking
at the presence of the XFree86 binary?
Karel.
