I happened to do a cvs checkout of the freeciv source today (I was
thinking about a couple of ideas, like writing some AI to make
settlers connect cities and maybe hacking together some Python code
that will act like a client to experiment with) and did a Debian build
on a Pentium box at work; the Xaw3d client seems to work OK, but the
"gtk" client is actually linked against Xaw!  (I think it picked up
the wrong binary or something after building... it dumps core like the
xaw binary w/o a wrapper, so I assume that's what happened.)

Also, all of the client packages provide the civclient and civserver
manpages; in fact, so does the server package.
