:Well, I certainly no how to work around this. It's simply a matter of
:symlinking libXi.so.6.0 to libXi.so.6 (and so on for the other
:libraries). I just wanted to report this so it can be fixed in the
:dfports tree :-)

This is fixed by rebuilding 'imake', but really you have to delete all
installed packages and rebuild them. Make sure you have /usr/dfports
properly installed updated and be sure to clean out your ports tree work
files by cleaning whatever ports you built. Then rebuild.
The devel/imake-4 before the fixes generated bogus information and
caused the build to think it was on an a.out system, which uses
the double-numbering scheme. The fixed imake tells the system it is
ELF which uses the single-numbering scheme.
