A lot of PD stuff has come through lately (UUCP, plplot, yacc, etc)
that was set up for Lattice C.  Alas, I am fortunate in that I have
Manx (nothing implied here :-).  Can anyone comment on what things
I should look out for when getting these compiled under Manx?

Specifically, I'm having problems translating lines of the form

	system ("ls -l mydir");

into the manx 

	fexecl ("ls","-l","mydir");

or, the seemingly equivalent
 
	fexecl ("ls","-l mydir");
