What this says about Tru64 is certainly not true by default, although
you _could_ customize the default compiler options to break things
that way, in which case I expect plenty of other things would fail.
Just modifying the makefile won't work anyhow.
I suggest removing the item.
* The `configure' script doesn't find the jpeg library.
This can happen because the linker by default only looks for shared
libraries, but jpeg distribution by default doesn't build and doesn't
install a shared version of the library, `libjpeg.so'. One system
where this is known to happen is Compaq OSF/1 (`Tru64'), but it
probably isn't limited to that system.
You can configure the jpeg library with the `--enable-shared' option
and then rebuild libjpeg. This produces a shared version of libjpeg,
which you need to install. Finally, rerun the Emacs configure script,
which should now find the jpeg library. Alternatively, modify the
generated src/Makefile to link the .a file explicitly.
(If you need the static version of the jpeg library as well, configure
libjpeg with both `--enable-static' and `--enable-shared' options.)
