Actually i told you first time when you posted that configure script
of DDD has problems and does not include libraries in a proper order.
This is a VERY VERY problem in DDD configure script and I am not sure
who DDD maintainer never thought to look at it. The oder of linking should
always be -lSM -lICE -lXt. On many systems -lXt -lSM -lICE will DEFINITELY
fail
because libXt will return unresolved symbols.
Therefore in response to your first complain that Cygwin/Xfree86 has
libraries
missing, I told you, "Definitely NOT, Complain to DDD mailing list and
maintainers
to fix the DDD configure scripts."

Suhaib
