I'm not sure exactly what that means.  However, it looks as though I
forgot to expurgate `gets' from xdl_view, but I doubt whether that
call is the thing most likely to cause a crash of the programs!

You need to install the XFree86-devel (?) RPM package, but if this was
after running the rotgen configure I'm not sure why it would have
found X stuff if Xt isn't there.

I'm puzzled why fort77 and g77 are both being used.

I'm sure that isn't the problem, but if you're on for updating the
compilers, get gcc 2.95.  There is a source RPM somewhere if not a
binary for RH6.
