I have looked at this. The patch for [0] was to fix gcc-14 incompatible
pointer issue and it worked at that time. But recently the libxaw
upstream has some changes[1] about this, so this may lead to ftbfs again.
Under such circumstances we can drop the patch to enable the build is
okay.

There are still some clean work that need to be done before team upload,
so I just reply to here about the issue.

-Description: fix gcc-14 FTBFS caused by incompatible pointer types
- `XawListChange` declares the type of its second parameter as `_Xconst
- char **`.  However, xawtv passes `str_list`, which is declared as
- `String *`, or `&empty` which is declared as `char *`.  With gcc 14,
- these result in incompatible-pointer errors:
- .

- Both variables are only used as arguments to `XawListChange`, so change
- their types to match its expectations.
