This sounds like the libforms for SGI has been statically linked with
libXpm. Did you try linking without the -lXpm? Just edit the
src/Makefile by hand.

The last step is just calling the linker via the compiler so we ignore
the compiler flags. You should set the linker flags LDFLAGS -- however
configure sets this to the location of the xforms library so edit
src/Makefile by hand and please report back if this helped. We'll then
need to come up with a solution in the configure script.

You're welcome,
