The include files are missing from your machine - usually this means
you need to install the XWindows developers RPM on your computer.  If
you went ahead and finished the installation then you do not need to
run install.pl.  Instead, after installing the RPM

cd $AIPS_ROOT
source LOGIN.CSH    (or . LOGIN.SH for bash)
$CDTST
cd $YSERV/XAS
make clean
make

will build the XAS for you.
