Chris,

It sounds like the install when astray.  icont is the
translator and it sounds like it can't find it or that
that it's using the wrong arguments.

I assume this is on Windows.

Did you add the unicon bin directory to your
path/environment variables?

By some off-chance, could you possibly have an old
icon/unicon library on your machine?? 

I've cross posted to the Unicon list as well.

You can try manually compiling the .icn file from a
command line (program name below may be off):

> icont 00hc-resume-logfile

That should produce an exe file.

Hope that helps.
