Hi Marty,

I previously said:

I did some seemingly minor reorganization of the PATH setup
in ~mcidas/.bash_profile on your machine; logged off and then
logged back on (to make sure that the environment was completely
reset); and then rebuilt McIDAS from scratch.  This time there
was no problem in building McIDAS.  Interesting and a bit
strange.  It must be that some routine from the /opt/csw/bin
or /opt/sfw/bin directories were being used instead of a
more standard version of the same.

Please let me know if you run into any problems or have any
questions.

Cheers,

Tom
