We're working on this one - it's similar [though *not* the same] to a
circular dependency - basically there are dependencies on generated
include files - and we're working on making sure they're done in the
correct order.

I take it that these are errors from the 'install' program/script you
are using - the files you mention above are actually c-shell scripts.

You might try defining BUILDANDREWINSTALL_ENV which will build a program
called 'install' which we use locally.

This is an unfortuante cosmetic problem - the 'makedepend' program is
parsing a string constant in the .c file - and the string constant
includes these '#<string>'s in it. -- you should be able to safely
ignore it.

Good point, I'm surprised nobody caught this before - consider it done
(though it's possible you won't see the change until the actual release,
if it doesn't make it into our last pre-release patch)

Thanks for the input.
