Yes, you will need the "-D_HPUX_SOURCE" compiler flag.  We have found
that the following works on our new HP-UX B.10.20 system:

    CPPFLAGS='-D_HPUX_SOURCE -DNDEBUG'
    CC=c89
    CFLAGS=-O
    FC=fort77
    FFLAGS='-O3 -w'

We only had an HP-UX 9 system when version 3.3.1 was released, but have
some updates for other systems that weren't included with that version
