X11R6.8.2 build error

[Alan Coopersmith]

Oh - you're building the 6.8.2 branch?   I thought you were checking out
HEAD from CVS.  I don't know how to make the older branches find the 
file in the old location and the new branches find it in the new one.
Someone who knows CVS better than I do will have to advise on that.

Until then, why not just use the tarball of 6.8.2 instead of checking it
out of CVS?
