Linking with Xmu library removed. This bug is considered fixed until somebody reports it's not working without it.

I've tested it now on Ubuntu after uninstalling the libxmu-dev and libxmu-headers packages and removing the -lXmu. Compiles and runs fine.

I hit the same problem on Ubuntu, where libXmu wasn't checked in configure but it is being linked to. However, my point is that I just tried linking without this library and that it seems to work fine (at least on Arch Linux, I can also check Ubuntu). So then instead of adding a check for libXmu, we could also just not link to it.

This was a bug that I hit on Fedora Core 5. Not sure what the specifics of their library needs are, but we need a way to detect it.

Actually it compiles fine for me without linking to libXmu, so maybe we can just get rid of it.

Configure does not detect a necessary library (Xmu) on FC5. This may affect other platforms. The build appears successful until linking.
