Yipes!  I'm out from underneath the mound of email and I can't find
yours!

Would you please send me a recap of the problem.  Please include the
following:

    Standard output of `uname -a`
    Standard output of the `configure' script.
    Standard output of a `make'.

A little.

Please do.

If you don't need FORTRAN support, I'd go right to 3.3a.  If you do need
FORTRAN support, then I'd stick with 2.4.3 just a little longer.
