I didn't think it would.

Right, that was the one we were looking for.

Hmm, you obviously don't have the message file because you haven't built 
the engine yet.  I haven't seen a program fail to run because of a 
missing message file, though.  The problem is that without the message 
file it is hard to tell what the error is!  So, I suggest downloading 
the .tar.gz package, extracting just the message file, putting that in 
/opt/interbase/interbase.msg, and building again.  Hopefully gbak will 
report understandable errors we can fix.

If all goes well you shouldn't need the message file during the build.  
Hence it really doesn't _need_ to be in the boot kit.
