Somebody sent me another snapshot (geomview-1.8.2-rc1.tar.gz),
which is a couple months more recent that the version above,
but it won't build.  Here are the last few lines of output from
a make:

../../../../src/lib/gprim/discgrp/libdg.a(dgstream.o)(.text+0x78c): In function DiscGrpImport':
/home/grante/geomview-1.8.2-rc1/src/lib/gprim/discgrp/dgstream.c:300: undefined reference to fsaparse'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

I googled for fsaparse, and it appears to be part of some
library originally available on SGI systems.

I found a function named fsa_parse() in lib/oogle/util/fsa.c,
but it doesn't match the prototype for fsaparse().

The man page for fsaparse(3) is in src/lib/oog/wa, and there
appears to be source code in fsaparse.y for fsaparse(), but
libwa.a doesn't contain fsaparse().
