No, those are informational only.

No, this is due to the current lesstif release not using the proper DLL
import/export decorations in its headers, thus relying on binutils to do
the right 'nix like thing.

Could you give the test version of lesstif a try and report back please?
I keep meaning to roll it into a current one but hadn't yet found the
