I believe the problem is that the DECwindows shipped with Ultrix 4.2
is based on X11R3, but you need at least X11R4 to build xboard.  This
is mentioned in the xboard README file.

At my site, we've installed X11R5 from MIT, and I'm able to compile
xboard on a DECstation using that.  Also, I know that DEC OSF/1 for
the Alpha comes with X11R5; however, I don't know what the future
plans or schedules are for X on MIPS-based DEC machines.
