But it's not symlink, it's a directory.  I use this HP-UX machine
since 1990, and as far as I remember the X11 stuff was always in
/usr/lib/X11 and /usr/bin/X11.

I never installed a HP-UX system myself, thus I can't tell for sure
whether it comes like that out of the box or whether the sysadmins did
especially set it up like that.

I checked another HP-UX machine at a completely different institution,
and it also has the /usr/lib/X11 and /usr/bin/X11 directories. That
makes me think it is very likely that HP-UX indeed comes setup like
this as the default.

All DEC OSF-1 machines which I used in Japan from 1996-1998 had
the X stuff in /usr/lib/X11 and /usr/bin/X11 too. But in that case too
I am not sure whether this is the default configuration.
