mgdiff : Needs to be re-linked

[Erik de Castro Lopo]

Running mgdiff on any two files with differences results in the following warning message:

    /usr/bin/mgdiff: Symbol `_XmStrings' has different size in shared object, consider re-linking

It looks like the mgdiff binary and the Lesstiff library disagree on the size of a symbol.

Is this symptom still reproducible in 8.10 RC or later?

I'm currently running Intrepid on my laptop and I haven't seen
this there.

It would still be nice to get this fixed in Hardy the LTS release.

You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can anyone confirm if this bug still exists in Hardy the LTS.

I still use.
