Compiling SRPM on FC3 with --enable-xprint fails

Fails with the following message:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lxprintutil
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
gmake[3]: *** [libgfx_gtk.so] Error 1
gmake[3]: Leaving directory
`/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/mozilla/gfx/src/gtk'

System: FC3, everything updated as of 2005-04-22, SRPM used 
is mozilla-1.7.7-1.3.1.i386.rpm. Same
version of mozilla-devel RPM is also installed. 

Options that I added to configure in the spec:
  --enable-xprint
  --enable-postscript
  --enable-strip

(Also removed all -g compiler flags.)

Xprint: xprint-2004-07-07-release_009_001-0.9.001.src.rpm *was*
installed and operational at the time of compilation. (I have
removed it until I try again.) I also tried compiling xprint from
the SRPM. Other than a slightly different package name, there was
no effect. The same failure occurred.

While xprint was installed, I was able to find no evidence of a
libxprintutil.o anywhere on the system. I am assuming it
should be in /usr/X11R6/lib, but it's not there. There is an xprintutil.o
file in
/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/xprint/src/xprint_main/xc/lib/XprintUtil/xprintutil.o .

By the way, for at least some form of comparison, I looked at my
old RH 7.2 system, where I last compiled Moz 1.7.2 with xprint. I
was able to successfully compile on that system, even though it,
too, appears to lack a libxprintutil.o . So now I am quite
bewildered as to where the actual problem might be. I was thinking
libxprintutil.o would be a prerequisite, but maybe it isn't?
But then the error message makes no sense.

The actual command on which compilation failed is (NB: editor
has word-wrapped):
