I have made up a linux, x86, libc-5 copy of 1.0.0. I can send it to
Sunsite if no one else is planning to.
BTW, it has been a while since I built a binary, but I was surprised that
the "make bindist" command did not automagically create a binary with
libXpm and libforms compiled in statically. I would surmise that anyone
having these libraries would just make their own copy, and that providing
a binary distribution was necessary only because not everyone would have
this.
Maybe for those using either debian or RedHat packages, they would check
on, and insist upon, those libraries being installed before allowing LyX
to be installed. But that, IMO, creates an unnecessary obstacle for
someone trying LyX out.
At any rate, my binary does have these libraries linked statically. It's
on ftp://ftp.netaxs.com/web/people/dlj0/LyX/ if someone wants it.

"Business!" cried the Ghost, wringing its hands again. "Mankind was my
business. The common welfare was my business; charity, mercy, forbearance,
and benevolence, were, all, my business. The dealings of my trade were but
a drop of water in the comprehensive ocean of my business!"
