Here are my build-notes for the Andrew system (which I like a lot):

Setting up the environment:

In "/x11r3/contrib/toolkits/andrew/config/andrewenv.h":
	Set LEVEL_ENV to 4.
	Defined X11_ENV.
	DITROFF_ENV defined.  (MCC STP has ditroff in /usr/andrew/bin)
	RESOLVER_ENV defined (though I don't really know!).
	added new var MCC_STP_ENV defined to 1  (for our print commands)

In "/x11r3/contrib/toolkits/andrew/config/Sun.macros":
	XBASEDIR set to "/x11r3"  (my link to the real location)
	XSRCDIR set to "/x11r3"
	DESTDIR set to "/andrew"  (my link to the real location)

In "/x11r3/contrib/toolkits/andrew/atk/support/print.c"
	Added new section of print contants (such as print_PRINTCOMMAND)
	conditionally defined if MCC_STP_ENV is defined.  This tells
	Andrew how to invoke troff.

In "/x11r3/contrib/toolkits/andrew/atk/ltext/ltext.c"
	Added indentation for "defclass" and "defmethod".

In "/x11r3/contrib/toolkits/andrew/overhead/util/lib/andrewdir.c"
	Set default Andrew root path to "/andrew" by changing the string
	"/usr/andrew" to "/andrew".  This defines the default setting of
	the environment variable ANDREWDIR.

The build instructions assume that andrew is a subdirectory of contrib.
I moved the Imakefile from /x11r3/contrib to /x11r3/contrib/toolkits, and
removed the references to other subdirectories of /x11r3/contrib.

In /x11r3/contrib/toolkits/Imakefile, changed

  AndrewMakefiles::
	$(RM) andrew/Makefile.bak
	-$(MV) andrew/Makefile andrew/Makefile.bak
	cd andrew; ../$(IMAKE) -DTOPDIR=. -TImake.template\
		-Iconfig -s Makefile

to

  AndrewMakefiles::
	$(RM) andrew/Makefile.bak
	-$(MV) andrew/Makefile andrew/Makefile.bak
	cd andrew; $(IMAKE) -DTOPDIR=. -TImake.template\
		-Iconfig -s Makefile

which is just removing the relative location of the imake program.

Used imake to make the Makefile:

  /x11r3/util/imake/imake -DTOPDIR=/x11r3 \
    -T /x11r3/util/imake.includes/Imake.tmpl -s mm

Then

  cd /x11r3/contrib/toolkits
  make -f mm AndrewMakefiles
  cd andrew
  make Makefiles
  make World

First error occurred while attempting to build
/x11r3/contrib/toolkits/andrew/atk/basics/xfontdesc.o,
in that the file $(XBASEDIR)/include/X11/cursorfont.h was not in place.
Copied it from /x11r3/X11/cursorfont.h, and said "make World" again.

Received a number of apparently harmless error messages from the
"make depend" steps, along the lines of "cannot find file foo.eh".
