#1 make fails; make install works

The docs say that there's a makefile in the examples
directory, but I can't find one in the release or in
cvs. Any suggestions?

I was able to get the library part to compile on redhat
linux 6.2, and I copied a makefile from from some other
directory into examples and I can build .o files, but
it sounds like a ".xfn" file is needed...

    I reported the problem wrong, and there is in fact a
    makefile in the examples dir. Here's what I should have
    said:

    make fails
    make all fails

    It would be great if you could document this. Fortunately,

    make install works

    Well, it seems that the makefile is a bit confusing...
    It will be probably better to inver the order of the ``all''
    and ``install'' entries, so that install is the default.
    I'll do it in the next days
