lesstif - Recompile for shared Xt has STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION

[Harold L Hunt II]

Brian,

I just realized that I forgot to edit the build script and change 
--disable-shared to --enable-shared.  That could explain my problems and 
why you don't get modal dialogs but I do.  I will let you know if my 
results are similar to yours after a rebuild.
