Sorry. This is an error in the instructions.
We need to have you preserve jackets.o from the 2.4.3 build before you
do a 'make clean' in the 2.4.3 tree, or provide a different (never released)
jackets source that does not depend on the private include file.

I just did a build on an SGI without 'make clean' in the 2.4.3 tree.
I manually deleted fortran/ftest, ncgen/ncgen and ncdump/ncdump, and then
did a 'make' to relink using the 3.1a library.
