20051026: 20051026: 20051005: GEMPAK 5.8.3a problem with garp



David,

Its disappointing that flavors of Linux aren't binary compatible. 
I'd certainly like to make the source distribution build as readily as possible 
so that
users of could build from source as easily as installing a binary distriution.

Aside from your local modifications, are there steps you have to go through to
build that differ from RedHat/FC?
