What does 'ldd' tell you about this library?  I suspect that the program
was probably compiled with a hard library path in it (some old ones were)
and so it won't work.  Try recompiling it, or if you are adventurous you
could fix it with a binary editor.

Alternatively, it might just be your /etc/ld.so.conf.  Make sure it has
/usr/X11R6/lib in it, and run ldconfig.
