No you don't.  The binaries are shared libs that replace the standard Xaw 
library.  All you have do do, is unpack them somewhere (e.g. /usr/X11R6/lib)
and run ldconfig.   What may be neccessary is if you unpacked into a 
different place and left the original libs intact, is to put the directory
containing the Xaw95 libs either in LD_LIBRARY_PATH or in /etc/ld.so.conf.

Then you get the gruesome beauty of win95.
