I'm trying to figure out why xmArrowButtonGadgetClass needs to be
linked to draw_shapefile_map.  That makes no sense to me.  One is a
gadget (a GUI object).  The other is called to draw shapefile maps
to the pixmap and is one of our custom Xastir functions.

It looks to me like there are two messages concatenated together.

The above looks like an informational or warning message, but
perhaps not an error.

That one looks like there's some information missing in it.  Perhaps
you could look through your make.log file (if you used update-xastir
to compile it) to see what the error message really was.

I think you might need Shapelib in order to compile GDAL.  That
might let you compile it without figuring out the above.
