Redhat 6.1 was used to build the 1.2.2 source, later releases of gcc
refused to even compile the assembler files, and you need to remove the
comment lines if you are using a later release. One of the challenges
with developing on linux is how fast distributions change, the tools
all changed in a year. 

If you are seeing segfaults then I would suggest using the patched
motif from openmotif.org, you need the development tree version.

rt.jar is a release bundle, for development you can just use the classes
in the build/classes directory.
