I recenlty upgrated my fink from cvs. In the process I went
from emacs21-11 to emacs21-12. I was frustrated to see that
emacs didn't look as good anymore. After some investigation,
I discovered that xaw3d support is now a splitoff. I

I have an idea for a modification to the current Fink build install
