i had the same problem a while back, and realized that without any
image libs, no image handling whatsoever in afterstep [not to good]
i just snagged libxpm somewhere and installed it in my home directory,
and pointed ./configure to it.

im not sure why you dont want any image libs in AS, but i suggest 
putting -at least- xpm in, as it is a very basic library for many
X applications.
