Hm, you should be able to find a 'fix' for HP-UX in the mailing list
archives (http://archives.real-time.com/) (not a very beautiful fix, mind
you, but it'll work). I'll try to figure out the actual problem when I get
time and do the next portability test at work for the gtk cfclient.

Well, I've hacked a preliminary autoconf integration of Xlib and GTK
cfclient, which works, but also needs some cosmetic fixups. That configure
script should detect if gtk is installed, and compile the gtk version if
it is, otherwise compile the Xlib version (and accept explicit switches
for which version is wanted).
