problem making epcoh 4.0 on rs6000/os 3.1.6

 I had a couple of problems installing epoch 4.0 on an rs6000 running
 aix 3.1.6 (with x11r4).  One I patched by ok, probably, the other I have
 not solved:
 
 1. in sysdep.c, there is
      extern TEXT_END;
    and another extern with DATA_END.  But in m-ibmrs6000.h, those are
    defined as 0, so those extern's fail.  I just commented them out
    and got past the compilation error.
 
 2. when doing the following link, near the end of xmakefile (I think),
    the following happens:
 
         cc -Wl,-bnso,-bnodelcsect,-bI:/lib/syscalls.exp   -o temacs  window.o
  term.o x11term.o x11fns.o xevent.o screen.o xdefault.o xresource.o property.o

0706-317 ERROR: Unresolved or undefined symbols detected:

                  dumped to the load map.
 .XSetWMNormalHints
 .XGetWMNormalHints
 
 As you can see, it can't find those 2 X routines.  They indeed do not seem to be
 on this system, nor in the man pages.  (XSetWMHints is there, as is
 XSetNormalHints,
 but not the combined form!).
 
 As I mentioned above, I used m-ibmrs6000.h, and s-aix3-1.h, and
 just make install-aix to do it.
 
 thanks very much for any help you can give.

Yup; this is fixed in 4.2.

As for missing X functions: I dunno; are you sure you're running
X11R4?  (AIX 3.1 came with X11R3.)  I know Epoch 4.x compiles with AIX
3.2.
