I think the problem is that zsh's config.sub has become out of date with
respect to the version of autoconf that was used to produce the configure
script -- although on my system the only other "config.sub"s I can find,
which are the from automake and libtool, are even further out of whack
than zsh's.

However, it puzzles me greatly that configure didn't stop upon getting
that error.  It should have printed:

    configure: error: can not guess host type; you must specify one

and then exited.  (The one to specify would be "hppa2.0-hp-hpux11.00" i.e.
with no "n" after the "0").

It's difficult to tell where this is coming from.  I should have asked you
to send your config.log file.

}  ~/Shar/zsh/zsh-3.1.6 > make 
} No suffix list.

This is just "make" warning needlessly that zsh's build has intentionally
clobbered one of its defaults.

} sh: cc -E:  not found.

I'm going to assume for the time being that this is an artifact of something
you did while configuring on a different machine than where you compiled,
and instead look at the other output you sent:

Every lower-case "t" in your builtin.pro file has been turned into a space.
This suggests that your copy of nawk is misinterpreting this command in
makepro.awk:

	gsub(/\t/, " ")

And it may also be misreading

	if (line == "" && $0 ~ /^[ \t]*#/) {

Either obtain gawk, or try replacing those \t in Src/makepro.awk with
actual tab characters, then rm Src/*.pro and reconfigure.  Let us know
how it goes.
