Okay, everything builds once more, *if* you install the Gnu 
Scientific Library, per the instructions now included in README.txt:

Download, build, and install gsl (from gnu.org)
* General page for gsl downloading: 
http://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/#downloading
* Or obtain directly from: ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gsl/gsl-1.7.tar.gz
* Unzip and untar wherever you want
* Then follow the instructions in "INSTALL"
   (./configure ; make ; make install)
   This should install to /usr/local/include and /usr/local/lib.

Virgil needs gsl for his work computing Olaf Sporns's complexity 
metric within Polyworld, and this will be a part of Polyworld from 
now on.  We may embed a copy of gsl in the polyworld project itself, 
to avoid having to download multiple libraries, but we didn't want to 
hassle with the quirks of cvs add today.

Anyone a cvs guru?  Is there any way to do a recursive add?  There 
are over 1,700 files, in multiple nested directory levels.  We can 
potentially use find and a short shell script, but I was wondering if 
cvs import could be made to work for this function?  (Although I want 
to be sure this stuff is Top Of Trunk, not on some branch after it 
gets imported/added.)
