Larry, I'm still trying to figure that out. In your message below, you mention failing to run ranlib in gplt/device/satellite. Does it always fail to run ranlib there? My previous experience was that the failure to run ranlib occured in different places each time in the build. If it always occurs in one location, we might be making progress.
