Eck. It's supposed to be a symlink!
Put that directory back to how it was, that isn't your problem.

Hmm, maybe that's related - on NetBSD for example, you'd need to
tell the linker where the shared libraries you use are, using something like

gcc -I/usr/X11R6/include -o bhole -L/usr/X11R6/lib -Wl,-R/usr/X11R6/lib bhole.o -lm -lglut .....

Have you done much development on this platform before?
If not, it might be worth asking on a SCO group/list if the compiler has any
quirks.
