Just to confirm: I noticed that there's something mentioned in xaw3d to
the effect that it is no longer an Xaw replacement. Is this true of all
those originally Xaw-replacing packages? If so, I will just link aXe with
Xaw (since it crashes with xaw3d, and probably with the win98 lookalike as
well).
