I used Alta Vista to search for libXExExt and libX11kb.  Here are the
results.

======================

>From http://www.redhat.com/linux-info/xfree86/3.2/RELNOTES-3.html:

As part of the change to X11R6.1, the shared library revisions for
libX11, libXaw, libXext, and libXtst have been incremented to 6.1.

The client-side library code for the XFree86 extensions and the
ScreenSaver extension has been moved into separate libraries. The old
libXExExt has been removed.

>From http://gatekeeper.dec.com/pub/X11/R6-contrib/faqs/X11R6-on-SUN-FAQ

ld.so problems with R5-compiled apps (SunOS 4.1.3 only)

Symptoms: Some applications compiled with R5 dynamically won't run with R6,
ld.so barfs about some undefined functions.

If you have the R6 libs path before R5 in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH, and
defined the XKB stuff (default), the applications will take some of
their shared libs in the R6 pool, except libX11.so.* which doesn't
exist anymore, since it's now named libX11kb.so.4.20. This is because
the XConsortium has not done a major increase in the SunOS 4.1.x major
shared lib number...

Fix: Add a symbolical link, from libX11.so.4.20 to libX11kb.so.4.20
