Well, I am not in the position to enter a discussion about the direction
taken by the changes in Xaw3d.

I can only thank you very much for taking the time to fix the gv-3.7.3
<--> Xaw3d-1.6.1 problems.

I summarize here what seems to be the working configuration, in the hope
to be useful for others:

=> build Xaw3d-1.6.1 with:

    --enable-internationalization
    --enable-multiplane-bitmaps
    --enable-gray-stipples
    --enable-arrow-scrollbars

=> then build gv with:

   export CFLAGS="${CFLAGS} `pkg-config --cflags xaw3d`"


Thanks again!
ciao
