It seems that the presentation schema is not correctly read when compiled
with cc.
I cannot analyze precisely your problem, but I suggest a patch in the function
TtaReadSignedShort in Thot/thotlib/base/fileaccess.c
On AIX platform the old implementation caused a display problem.
Let me know if this modification solves the problem.

#ifdef __STDC__
boolean             TtaReadSignedShort (BinFile file, int *sval)
#else  /* __STDC__ */
boolean             TtaReadSignedShort (file, sval)
BinFile             file;
int                *sval;

#endif /* __STDC__ */
{
  char      car;
 
  *sval = 0;
  if (!TtaReadByte (file, &car))
    return (FALSE);
  else
    {
      if (((int) car) < 0 || ((int) car) > 127 )
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
	*sval = SIGNED_SHORT_MASK;
      *sval |= ((((int) car) & LMASK) << DECAL_1);
      if (!TtaReadByte (file, &car))
	{
	  *sval = 0;
	  return (FALSE);
	}
      else
	{
	  *sval |= (((int) car) & LMASK);
	  return (TRUE);
	}
    }
}
