Mark,

This is the very last step in the build, linking Garp. The complaint is
that /usr/local/gempak/garp/gui/linux/gui.a doesn't exist, which probably
means that further up in the build, there was an error in the 
/usr/local/gempak/garp/gui directory build. I would need to know what happened
there.

This isn't one of our tested platforms, so I can't say that I have any idea
where the problem occured.
