Many errors trying to compile ddd 3.3 1 under AIX 4.3.3

[Ken Goldman]

Here are some of them.  Any clue?  I'll try 3.3 next.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

configure complains:

        configure: This DDD release requires LessTif 0.87 or later.
        Upgrade to a recent LessTif version or continue at own risk.

AIX uses Motif.  This is a strange error.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

make complains:


        gcc -c -DHAVE_CONFIG_H   -I. -I. -I/usr/local/include 
-DRL_LIBRARY_VERSION='"4.0"' -g -O complete.c
complete.c: In function `print_filename':

        gcc -c -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -g -O2 -I. -I./../include  -W -Wall

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And then the big one:

Making all in ddd
        cd .  && makeinfo `echo ddd.texi | sed 's,.*/,,'`
Making info file `ddd.info' from `ddd.texi'.
ddd.texi:41: Unknown command `documentencoding'.

ddd.texi:109: Misplaced {.

... (many more of these)
ddd.texi:281: Unknown command `acronym'.
Too many errors!  Gave up.
make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 4.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I tried, as a last resort, to cd ddd and make ddd, yielding this error:
