You should be able to find the xpm libraries, already compiled, in the
(you guessed it) Amiga binary archive.  The URL is:

ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD-Amiga/contrib/X11/libXpm-3.4g-bin11.tar.gz

You will need the libraries to compile anything that uses pixmaps, such as
fvwm and afterstep.  BTW, you can also get the binaries for afterstep and
fvwm(2,95) in the archive as well.

Is it possible to put the Amiga binary archive and a link in the FAQ?  So
many times, you can find binaries there that will take care of your woes.
