Thanks to Phil Kemp for relaying the fix to me!
Uncomment or add the line

#define HAVE_SELECT

to config.h and it creates windows in X properly on ISC 2.2.1.  Apparently,
on SCO, there may be some other changes necessary.  Phil said:

Thanks to Chris Weiner for sending me a new at386 termcap entry that works
properly!  He posted it as well, but I'll include it here in case you
missed it.  It's not very long.
