I build it here on my debian 3.0 box as follows:
I changed the compile-call from (taken from Thomas change of in pdftex build)
..... -lXaw ....
to
....  -Wl,-Bstatic -lXaw -Wl,-Bdynamic -lXpm ....

(yes, the -lXpm is necessary, otherwise I get a a undef reference in
Xpm.a).
The xdvi.bin size increases from
        xdvi.bin in Master:  742040
to
        xdvi.bin Xaw static: 981492

Please tell me if I should upload this binary to Master/bin/i386-linux?

Best wishes

Norbert
