I feel sorry for you :-)

It seems that you will have to have somebody with gnumake on hp to  
send you the compiled binaries or tweak the makefile and remove all  
the good features of gnumake.

I had this situation before at NationsBank/BofA. In order to compile  
a new version
of perl (Open Source) we could not use gcc (Open source) :-)
So the bank had to buy an expensive license of the Sun C++ compiler  
for that.
