Pierre Mai should have some cross-platform scripts since he did the
Mac OS X port.
I haven't down a cross-platform compile in years, but I think you can
start from the basic x86 script. Adjust the package names and add the
appropriate features for HP-UX and remove the x86 features. Some
experimentation will probably be required.
However, I know that Eric Marsden tried to build an HP-UX version
a year or two ago. It was difficult because a lot of the OS internals
had changed. He gave up after a while.
If you want an HP-UX version, I think SBCL would be a good choice. I
think it used to work there and getting it to work again will be less
work.
