GRASS on RS6000

I am not able to install GRASS4.0 on our RS6000/320H (AIX 3.1).
The problems are the graphics driver. The XDRIVER should be the
right one, but I cannot compile the latest version, because
in the "Graph_Set.c" there are calls to
XAllocSizeHints(), XAllocWMHints(), XSetWMProperties() and XSetWMProtocols()
but these functions do not exist in any library.
We have already a compiled (older) version for our RS6000, but I cannot
start any graphics monitor. When I try to do so, the message
"Unexpected <EOF> from graphics driver"
appears. When you try to say "list -f" in the d.mon program, you get
the message "ERROR reading from graphics device" instead of a list of
available monitors.
That is the reason why I tried to compile the latest XDRIVER version,
but it is impossible as I described above.
If someone had similar problems or solved these problems or had no
problems installing GRASS on a RS6000/32H, please contact me.

Thanks in advance,
