Harold,

I have too additional notes to this patch.

1. Because _Xtinherit is exported as a data symbol, immediate calls to this
function in the manner

...
	_XtInherit();
...

will be relocated wrongly and should be avoided ( I have seen this, but does
not know currently why this happens).

A workaround in case this is absolutly required is to use the following
stuff.

void (*func)(void);

func _blah_blah = XtInherit;

	...
	(*_blah_blah);
	...

2. In the patch there is a symbol named "_y". This should be renamed to a
name, which couldn't be used by regular functions for example
_$Xtinherit_ref or so. The '$' isn't a valid c function name.
