I don't think this would DTRT, since the package 'xpm' was a.out
(though I suppose one could make it both provide and conflict, but I
don't see that that would buy us anything), and we're not providing an
a.out version of the xpm library.

What someone needs to is create an xpm-compat package with the a.out
libs and _that_ should provide xpm.

IMHO, of course.

Mike.
