When you invoke "which make", is /usr/bin/make the version that's found?

If you change to the ncgen directory and explicitly invoke

  yacc -d ncgen.y

what is the result?  It appears from the above that this may be causing the
error, so perhaps "yacc" isn't found on your execution path and you need to
use "bison" instead, by setting the YACC macro (but the configure script
should have set this correctly).  If the yacc command works OK, I'm not
sure what the error message

   make: /usr/bin/make: cannot execute binary file

means, or why make would be trying to invoke /usr/bin/make recursively in
the ncgen directory.  We still don't have access to a Linux system here, so
can't reproduce the error.  In this case, try running "make clean" in the
ncgen directory, and then send us the output of "make -n all" in that
directory.  Thanks.
