The book is still showing Lesstif as an optional dependency of Vim. Lesstif is a dead project which hasn't been updated since 2009. Lesstif came into being as a FLOSS replacement for the proprietary Motif. This no longer became necessary when the Motif toolkit was released under the LGPL in 2012.
Regarding the entry in the book, and as Motif is an ongoing project, perhaps the answer is to now replace Lesstif with Motif. Vim can be built with a Motif backend. The Motif website is http://motif.ics.com/ and the source code is here https://sourceforge.net/p/motif/code/ci/master/tree/ Richard
