Mark,

For some reason, it seems like $GARPHOME/gui/linux/gui.a wasn't built.
Possibly because an error occured when building in that subdirectory.
Try running the "make all" again from $GARPHOME and see if you get
any compiler errors when decending in the gui/ directory.

Another possibility is your version of gmake doesn't like the
$(@:.o=.c) macro in the Makefiles in the subdirectories
or garp if your build didn't produce a $GARPHOME/gui/linux/gui.a
library. If thats the case, I'd suggest changing the macro to
just *.c, eg:
$(COMPILE.c) ../$(@:.o=.c) \
to 
$(COMPILE.c) ../*.c \
