Here is a message from someone who has successfully built xboard 
on an HP system.  As I understand it, HP does not provide imake and 
xmkmf with their software distribution, but you can FTP them from 
the site listed below.

Our official archive sites (listed in the footer below) provides xmkmf/imake in
the package /hpux9/X11R5/Core/imake-5.03.tar.gz.

It sounds like someone has already install imake at your site. If they have,
then use this xmkmf shell script included at the end of this message. You need
the "imake" binary in your path though.
