The question would be where to fetch the most recent version of the source.
I did fetch anc compile a recent version of olvwm in 2003, I do not remember
where I did put the sources and where I fetched them at that time.
At that time, I compiled them on Solaris 9.
I planned to compile the sources on Solaris 11 sice a while, there is a lack of
time.
