Do you mean the old-fashioned athena toolkit?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xaw

From ./configure --help:
--with-x-toolkit=KIT    use an X toolkit (KIT one of: yes or gtk, gtk2,
                        gtk3, lucid or athena, motif, no)

The choices are gtk, lucid (same as Qt), athena and motif.

Try this

./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --libexecdir=/usr/lib \
--localstatedir=/var --with-x-toolkit=athena \
--without-gconf --without-gsettings
make
make install

If it does not work try --without-xft in the configure line.

Does it compile? does it look all right?  I have never tried to put
that look into emacs, but I confess that I like the minimalistic look
of the old athena X11 applications like xterm, xfig.
