This is due to the 64 bit off_t type in NetBSD-current.  To fix
this you need to either have a proper lseek() declaration in
imake.c's scope, or a quick and dirty fix is to just  use a
(off_t) in the lseek call in imake.c.  BTW, this is the same fix
that is required in X11R5.  I did a compile back when X11R6 first
came out -- most things did work.... I stopped wasting time on it
because Xfree-2.1.1 is good enough for me.
