I have compiled the MIT sources for liboldX.a and put two files on
sunsite.unc.edu:

/pub/Linux/incoming/liboldX.tar.z - gnuzipped tarfile containins sources
                                     and a library
/pub/Linux/incoming/liboldX.README - the following:

=====
This is a compile of the MIT sources for liboldX.a. I don't think I
had to do any hacking at all; it's pretty much just as I got it from
export.lcs.mit.edu. This code is hence governed by the same copyright
as covers the rest of the X distribution; for details, either email me
or check on export. For some reason liboldX.a wasn't included in the
SLS distribution I got (1.0, I believe). You can either use the .a
file in the directory, or, if you'd like, recompile it. You might want
to run xmkmf before recompiling, as your setup might be different
enough from mine that you might not want to use my Makefile.

Programs that use liboldX.a are fairly rare, but some of them are dear
to my heart, for instance, xsol and the old pre-xboard gnuchess X
interface.

Comments to mrhoten@cs.stanford.edu.

Hope it helps. I've tested it by compiling and running xsol; seems to
work fine (at least the Assoc functions; I don't have sources that use
the rest.)
