Mark,

I don't know about your make time message, but after you built the
imar2gm file in the gemlib.a file (you can verify this is updated with
the command "ar tv $GEMLIB/gemlib.a imar2gm.o" and checking the date)
if you hadn't done a "make clean" when you built garp from patch14
the otherday, you should need to remove $GARPHOME/sol/garp before
relinking garp with:
cd $GARPHOME
make all
make install

The reason I mention the above is that since your xpm.a library was already 
there,
then make clean probably hasn't been run since the initial build and
the garp executable may not have been relinked.
