FYI.
As far as I checked, there is no libxaw-dev even in woody.

I guess porting the latest tetex-bin to potato might be
practically very difficult.

I don't know a history of libxaw-dev but, in changelog.Debian 
of libxaw7-dev I found;

xfree86 (4.2.1-14) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Make libxaw6-dev and libxaw7-dev conflict with and replace libxaw-dev (<<
    4.0.3); the latter existed as a real package in pre-woody unstable, and
    this permits smooth upgrades from such systems.

I'm not sure at present if we should remove libxaw-dev 
or not...
