Having trouble compiling on linux.

At first it couldnt find libXt... so I hacked the configure script to
ignore this -- since I *know* I have that lib and that it is in 
/usr/X11/lib 

Ran compile and it churns away for a long long time until it finally chokes
because it claims;

gcc main.o errors.o actionarea.o app-procs.o buildmenu.o callbacks.o color_select.o fileops.o gimprc.o menus.o interface.o palette.o widget.o colormaps.o disp-callbacks.o gconvert.o gdither.o gimage.o gdisplay.o gdisplay_ops.o gximage.o image_buf.o info_dialog.o info_window.o scale.o scroll.o shadow_ops.o status.o view_ops.o visual.o workprocs.o cursorutil.o general.o linked.o memutils.o progress.o timer.o plug_in.o autodialog.o bezier_select.o boundary.o crop.o global_edit.o gregion.o edit_selection.o ellipse_select.o flip_tool.o free_select.o fuzzy_select.o iscissors.o rect_select.o rotate_tool.o scale_tool.o selection.o select_core.o shear_tool.o temp_buf.o text_tool.o tools.o transform_core.o transform_tool.o undo.o airbrush.o blend.o brushes.o brush_select.o bucket_fill.o clone.o color_picker.o convolve.o paintbrush.o paint_core.o paint_funcs.o		 -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lXm -lXt -lXext -lX11 -lm   -o gimp
ld: Output file requires shared library `libXt.so.3'
gcc: Internal compiler error: program ld got fatal signal 6
make[1]: *** [gimp] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/gimp-0.5/app'
make: *** [all] Error 2

Now, the directory in -L/usr/X11R6/lib is where libXt.so.3 (libXt.so.3.1.0) is.
I also have a library libXt.so.6 (libXt.so.6.0) as well.
