This should probably be in the X386 release notes (README) which is otherwise
extremely well done. To build X11 programs using either ISC's X11R3 or Roell's
X11R4, you must include the BSD (Sockets) API by including -linet in your link
list. Also, for X386, and possibly for any other X11R4 that uses the /dev/ptmx
'clone' devices, which I can't find any other info on, use -lpt. 

In summary, for X386 on ISC (2.0.2 in my case), add
  -linet -lpt
after the -lX11. (It won't work if it is not AFTER the -lX11)

Example: cc -o xwarp xwarp.c -lXt -lX11 -linet -lpt
