This means you don't have libXmu header files.
Note that compiling xcrysden sources requires development versions
of some X11 libraries (which include the header files).

Now, I will describe how you do it for example for Debian GNU Linux.
Debian automatic installer is called apt-get.

1. go to the Debian Package page: http://packages.debian.org/
and select the "search the contents of packages"

2. in the entry type StdCmap.h and you will get the list of packages
that contains this file. (the results is: libxmu-headers)

3. as sudo or root execute:

apt-get install libxmu-headers

That's all! Now the StdCmap.h is on your system.

For other Linux distributions the recipe would be analogous. For
example, for RedHat the installer (as far as I know) is called "yum", so
one needs first to find the package name for the corresponding RedHat
package and then install it as "yum install packageName".
