For the record, I was able to compile it under Solaris 2.3 using gcc and it works great. I had to make the following changes during the make process, though. I hope this helps:

I'm not familiar with imake, but I looked into it and finally did the following:

1. I ran xmkmf as described in the original instructions
2. I edited the resulting Makefile as follows:

oz% diff Makefile.bak Makefile
128c128
< IMAKE_CMD = $(IMAKE) -DUseInstalled -I$(IRULESRC) $(IMAKE_DEFINES)

---


>         IMAKE_CMD = $(IMAKE) -DUseInstalled=YES -I$(IRULESRC) $(IMAKE_DEFINES)

154c154
<         CONFIGDIR = $(LIBDIR)/config
---


>         CONFIGDIR = $(USRLIBDIR)/config

< 	$(CC) -o $_at_ $(OBJS) $(LDOPTIONS) $(LOCAL_LIBRARIES) $(LDLIBS) $(EXTRA_LOAD_FLAGS)
---


> 	$(CC) -o $_at_ $(OBJS) $(LDOPTIONS) $(LOCAL_LIBRARIES) $(LDLIBS) $(EXTRA_LOAD_FLAGS) $(ORACLE_HOME)/lib/__fstd.o


The -DUseInstalled=YES was to get Imake to stop complaining about 
redefining UseInstalled.
The change to CONFIGDIR I inferred from your reply to my original
question.
Adding __fstd.o to the link is suggested for resolving -xcg92
problems when not using SunPro's SPARCcompiler.  I am using gcc.

3. I also had to edit Rheostat.c and help_window_actions.c as follows:

oz% diff Rheostat.c.bak Rheostat.c
57a58


> #define _XOPEN_SOURCE


This was so the #include <math.h> would include the macro for M_PI.

oz% diff help_window_actions.c.bak help_window_actions.c
78d77
<          else
79a79


>          else


This was because I turned off debugging and the else was on the
wrong side of the #ifdef statement.


4. I ran 'make Makefiles' 'make clean' 'make depend' 'make all'
   and it worked like it was supposed to. (gcc reported:
   gcc: language F not recognized)

5. I'm not and X expert, so it took me a little bit to find where
   to put the XDBA resource file (/usr/lib/X11/app-defaults).
