It sure improved things (no more crashes), but there are problems with
the shell (see below).

My current configure command looks like this:
../configure --disable-debug --disable-verbose --enable-production
--prefix=/usr/X11R6.4 --x-includes=/usr/X11R6.3/include
--x-libraries-/usr/X11R6.3/lib
It stops with the following output:
../config.status: en.: command not found
../config.status: line 385: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `"'
../config.status: line 395: syntax error: unexpected end of file
The string "en." seems to be the end of a comment line in the
config.status script (it's the only occurence of that string in the
file!). I was able to finish configure by editing config.status by hand
(see the P.S.) and running config.status a second time. This seems to be a
shell related problem, someone with internal knowledge of the shell needs
to look into this. "make -i" generated the libraries o.k.
Thanks for the helpful messages!

P.S.: For some who wants to look at the problem: The version of lesstif I
used (lesstif-0.81) is available from www.lesstif.org. I removed
everything in "config.status" between the lines which say:
........
ac_given_srcdir=.
ac_given_INSTALL="/GNUWIN32/B18/H-I386-CYGWIN32/BIN/install -c"
>>>>>>>>>>>>start remove
trap 'rm -fr Makefile .......
........
rm -f conftest.subs
<<<<<<<<<<end remove
# These sed commands are passed to sed as "A NAME B NAME C VALUE D", where
# NAME is the cpp macro being defined and VALUE is the value it is being given.
#
# ac_d sets the value in "#define NAME VALUE" lines.
