transparent + tinted terminal aterm compiled & works OK

[Frank-Michael Moser]

Thanks, finally it works.
I had to replace all occurenses of -lgif by -lunginf in libAbfter's 
makefiles and had to call aterm's configure explicitely with

configure --with-afterimage-includes=/usr/local/include/libAfterImage 
--with-afterbase-includes=/usr/local/include/libAfterBase 
--with-afterimage-lib=/usr/local/lib --with-afterbase-lib=/usr/local/lib
