The problem comes from the /usr/X11R6/lib/xxx.a libraries, which do not exist. Dont't know if it is a debian or a Xorg issue, but these files are now in /usr/lib/. 

I'm not clear on where such things stand, or whether there is a mechanism
to identify where things are kept. It seems that debian is not the same
as either Redhat or SuSE in this regard.


If I add '-lXau -lXdmcp -ldl' to the LINKLIBS var, line 269 in the Jambase file :

        LINKLIBS                default = -lm -lXau -lXdmcp -ldl ;

then, it compile. Why these libs are missing ? 

No idea. All this works perfectly on my Whitebox Linux.
What's libdl ? Are you sure it's needed ? It seems to be
a library for accessing shared library functionality at run time.
Is this used bye X11 ?

I'll modify the Jamfile to include the Xau and Xdmcp libraries.
