Hi Paola,

You have a CPP problem and its causing the WORDLENGTH macro to be
undefined.  Two things that will probably fix it are:

 1) remove the "CPP=" definition from your optfile and let 
    genmake2 find your cpp program

 2) locate where "cpp" is installed on your system 
    (use "which cpp") and then specify that with "CPP=..." in 
    your optfile.

And if you still have problems, please let us know.

Ed
