I haven't heard of version problems with any of these libraries,

I hunted down the originator of these and found that the are ancient. Which
is what I thought originally.
It's not a version issue, it's the location of the libraries.
There's
something screwy going on finding the libraries---it didn't find _any_
of them (the checks for symbols in Xaw3d, Xm, and gdbm all failed).
You do have the -devel versions of the RPMs installed, right?
(1) Look in config.log and see exactly what errors the linker is
giving.
(2) do a locate or find for libXaw3d.
(3) what are the -L arguments that are used by configure to try to
find those libraries?
It took me forever to figure out what was happening with the Athena stuff. The
non-development libraries were being read, but not the development ones. I
added --site-libraries=/usr/X11/lib/Xaw3d" to the configure arguments and it
compiles. The person as SuSE probably had his system configured differently.
The flag doesn't show in the M-x describe-installation buffer.

[no hits!]
I'll poke around for the gdm libraries. Perhaps something similar is
happening there.
Thanks for the pointers. That was a big help.
