Which one wasn't found? Look back up through the output.

There's no need to emulate the whole /usr/openwin path under your
directory (if you don't want to). You could just as easily use
/u/asl/xpm/lib, /u/asl/xpm/bin, etc.

I'll bet it's the header that wasn't found. By tradition, X headers are
#included in the code as <X11/xpm.h>. That means that whatever
directory you gave to --with-xpm-includes, the compiler will add
"/X11/xpm.h" to it to find the header. You gave
/u/asl/opt/usr/openwin/include/X11, so the compiler will be looking for
/u/asl/opt/usr/openwin/include/X11/X11/xpm.h (note two X11's). That
probably doesn't exist.
Change the configure line to use just
--with-xpm-includes=/u/asl/opt/usr/openwin/include and see if that works
any better.
