I'm pretty sure it did... (I believe a "ktrace xdm" indicated that it couldn't
open the file, and so I suspected ld.elf_so wasn't looking in the right place 
for it..  I played a bit with setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH to 
/usr/lib:/usr/X11R6/lib, and when xdm still gave the error, I copied the 
files, at which point it didn't complain any more.)

Sounds good :-)
