[UM1-coders] linux make

[Chisel W. <ch...@he...>]

Aah, joy; now we've away from linux a little, again, I've having problems compiling

Any clues on what this error actually *means*?
Solutions accepted, but if I understand the error I might be able to chase it further...

	make: *** [stringutil.o] Error 127
	rm -f netmud.o
	g++ -c -g -Wall -Wcast-qual -Wparentheses -Wwrite-strings -Wconversion netmud.c
	make: Target `by_default_just_make' not remade because of errors.

Also, I've had to doctor interface.c and netmud.c:

	uglyadm@chisel:~/src/UglyCODE$ cvs diff
	chi...@cv...'s password: 
	? version.h
	cvs server: Diffing .
	Index: interface.c

I've heard rumours that autoconf, etc are hard work. Is it likely to
make things like this happen less?

The code seems to be full of "#if[n]def <OS type>", and it still
doesn't seem to compile properly. Would auto* alleviate this?
