On a number of systems, including Linux systems using certain version of gcc (gcc-2.7.3 RedHat 5.0 for example) will not get a working version of kcalc unless you undefine the preprosessor symbol FABSL in
../config.h
that is change the line
#define FABSL
to
/*#define FABLS*/
However, this will give you greatly reduced precision; kcalc's fundamental data type will be double instead of long double. Complain to the gnu people or to your distribution and pressure them to ship a working version of gcc.
I found that several distributions don't know how to set the FontPath right and which fonts to install in order to get great fonts under X11. I can't help you gather great fonts for X11, but I can show you what my FontPath in /etc/XF86Config looks like -- this will help you getting better results for xemacs as well as kcalc:
