My guess is that you are not using the correct headers.
I saved your code to a file named xtest.c and compiled it like this
(egcs-1.02, NT4 SP3):
gcc -I/usr/X11R6.3/include -o xtest xtest.c /usr/X11R6.3/lib/libX11.a
and I get no SIGSEGV. However, if I compile it as:
gcc -o xtest xtest.c /usr/X11R6.3/lib/libX11.a
it builds allright but gives the same SIGSEGV you got. When you
omit the -I/usr/X11R6.3/include you are likely using the
X headers part of tcl/tk80, therefore the pointer incompatibility.
