In my case, it is usually a problem with which Xaw it is linked against.

Run ldd over the civclient program:
ldd client/civclient


It is usually a problem with which Xaw it is linked against.
You can experiment with the Xaw switches for configure (./configure --help ).
Brutal method: You might also try linking statically against the libXaw 
you want to try (replace the -lXaw you find in the client/Makefile
 by /usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw.a for example). This affects the final link step,
when compiling the client. You also copy and type that line by hand for 
quick experiments.
See the relevant threads in the list.

Good Luck
