Yeah. Is that file in /usr/X11R6/lib/aout? That's where it's looking
for the aout shared lib, not an ELF lib.

What to do depends on some things. Is the one in /usr/X11R6/lib the
aout or ELF? If the ones that should be in the aout dir are there, are
they properly included inthe ldconfig for aouts?

I've gone through this with a few 2.2.8 (aout) to 3.4 (ELF) upgrades.
