I've used PIL on that platform since long before it was known as
tru64, and we do test all releases on that platform.

looks like you're using a non-standard X11 install (/local/X11R6 is
not where X11 is installed by default).  if that's the case, the only
ones who can help you here are your local sysadms.

(and let's hope they have very good reasons for using a non-standard
X11 install on a tru64 box... ;-)

fwiw, this symbol is usually defined in libX11.a (or libX11.so).
