Hi Dimitris,

Yes, for the short term you need to use GNU make instead of the SGI
make.  You can do that by either:

  1) adding "-make=gmake" or "-make=/path/to/gmake" to the command 
     line,  or

  2) adding "MAKE=gmake" or "MAKE=/path/to/gmake" to the optfile

In the long term, I'll try to edit our build tools so that they are
better handled by older and less capable UNIX make implementations.

Ed
