As the HP-UX 11 example in the file INSTALL.html shows, you must define
the C macro _HPUX_SOURCE when using the c89 compiler.

Please try the following:

    1.  Go to the top-level source directory.

    2.  Perform steps 3 through 5 described near the end of the file
        INSTALL.html.

    3.  Ensure that the C macro _HPUX_SOURCE is defined in the
        environment variable CPPFLAGS, e.g.,

            export CPPFLAGS='-D_HPUX_SOURCE -DNDEBUG -w'

        or

            setenv CPPFLAGS '-D_HPUX_SOURCE -DNDEBUG -w'

        depending on your user-shell.

    4.  Perform steps 6 through 9 described near the end of the file
        INSTALL.html.

Please let me know if this helps.
