Nancy,

Your build stops at:
cc -DUNDERSCORE -DOSF1 -I/huser/gempak/gempak/include -O0  -c clipvgf.c 
 f77 -I/huser/gempak/gempak/include -I/huser/gempak/gempak/include/OSF1 -O0   
-nofor_main clipvgf.o /huser/gemp
ak/lib/osf/ginitp_alt.o /huser/gempak/lib/osf/gendp_alt.o  
/huser/gempak/lib/osf/cgemlib.a  /huser/gempak/lib/o
sf/gemlib.a  /huser/gempak/lib/osf/gplt.a  /huser/gempak/lib/osf/device.a  
/huser/gempak/lib/osf/gn.a  /huser/g
empak/lib/osf/gemlib.a -lm -o clipvgf
ld:
Unresolved:
gp_azdr_
dswndw_


Its likely that the repeated attemps to build aren't accomplishing anything 
because the
object files are still sitting in those directories, though not added to the 
library.
For example, there is probably gpazdr.o sitting in $GEMPAK/source/gemlib/gp 
directory.

Run a "make clean" before "make all" in your re-attempt. The make clean 
will remove the .o files in any directories that were supposed to be added to 
the archive.


Here is a script that I used to automatically restart the build should this 
condition happen:

#!/bin/csh -f

set STATUS=1

while ( $STATUS != 0 )

   make all >>& make.${NA_OS} 

   set STATUS=$status

   if($STATUS != 0) then
      echo "restarting build" >>& make.${NA_OS}
      make clean >>& make.${NA_OS}
   endif
end

make install programs_gf programs_nc >>& make.${NA_OS}
set STATUS=$status

if($STATUS == 0) make clean >>& make.${NA_OS}
