Re: compile error

[David Henderson <dhenderson () digital-pipe com>]

Thanks for the tips Dave!  I followed the advice on removing the
makefile.dep file and attempted to re-compile, but got the same error.  I'm
not sure how to turn off coloring escape sequences in bash.  The only ones
I have set is an alias for 'ls' to show colors, but that shouldn't have any
effect on what I'm doing and no other packages have showed any behavior
problems during compilation.  Any other thoughts?

Thanks,
Dave
