It is difficult to diagnose the problem remotely, but it can be done.
Two important things are accuracy and patience.
Do the following:
1. Go to the top-level source directory.
2. Print the contents of the file `VERSION' and send it to me.
3. Go into the xdr/ subdirectory.
4. List the contents of the directory. Send the list to me.
5. Send the file `msoft.mk' to me.
6. Execute the command `nmake /F msoft.mk'. Trap the output and
send it to me.
