How was this going?  After I saw the problem with rm_deps not being found, I=
 started looking through a lot of the sub-components' Out files.  Lots of=
 messages related to rm_deps and do_resolve.  Adding an absolute path makes=
 them work, but these are used in a lot of Makefiles.  Before I do a lot of=
 global replacing in the proto.make files, I thought I'd check with you and=
 see if the shell fixes you did make any difference.

If they don't fix the problem, my thoughts were to replace "rm_deps" in the=
 proto.make files with "$(RM_DEPS)" where RM_DEPS =3D $(UTIL_HOME)/bin/rm_de=
ps, and do the same for do_resolve.  Feedback appreciated.

thanks,
tim
