Tony,

re: simply rerunning make when a failure occurred

OK, this would explain the error when trying to compile.

I looked through the attached copy of makelog and didn't see anything
at the end that raised red flags.  I didn't study the file, however.

The errors you included:

  barb: /home/mcidas/mcidas7.6/src $ mcidas

can be explained by your not having defined MCDATA, MCPATH, MCGUI, PATH,
MCTABLE_READ, and MCTABLE_WRITE (actually, the non-definition of MCPATH
explains it all).  I'll bet that when you rebooted and relogged in that
you did not have MCPATH defined or that it was defined incorrectly.

Check your environment variable settings and try a session again.
