i remember having this problem as well. what i think i ended up having
to do was go into the makefile and put the explicit library i wanted to
use instead of just -lXpm

 XPM_LIBRARIES = /usr/local/lib/libXpm.so.4.3 -lXpm

the problem seemed to be that the libXpm.so wasn't linked to
libXpm.so.4.3 and i think i used this method cause i didn't have
privilage to change the link.

i basically hacked it until it worked. a more knowlegeable unix
guru might have a better solution. but i hope that helps.
