These versions of the libraries and the complier are now in retirement, and in many operating systems are dead and gone.

why it shouldn't be possible to install them on slackware, either using
the packaging system or by recompiling (even though I don't know anything
about slackware). In case you want to build against 'system' libraries
(libraries not in the supplib directory) you may be interested in the
grads tarball I distribute here (with only changes in configure with
--dyn-supplib given):
