Here are some problems that I ran into when building R4 under AUX 1.1.1 as
well as some solutions.

	xinit:	Seems to be looking for ./filename or /filename and it does not
		get em that way. (shell problem?)
		Work Around:  Use full path names in /usr/bin/X11/X11R4.

	cpp:	Limited to 7 include directories.  It will bomb out somewhere
		in server/ddx/macII/.	(of all places)
		Solution:  Increase the NINCLUDE define in util/cpp/cppdef.h.

Also, the imake configuration stuff needs to be told to build makefiles with
	-B/usr/lib/big/ added to CFLAGS
and /etc/bsdinstall for INSTALL instead of bsdinst.sh.  bsdinst.sh did not
work at all... the cp command in the script was not happy.. 8-(
(server/ddx/macII/R4setup.sh puts bsdinstall in /etc)

	xterm:	xterm is not registering entries in utmp... I dont know why. 
		I have checked the app-defaults and dont see anything to cause 
		this. 
		
Anyone else?  Anything overlooked?
