   Why don't you send the error messages reported.

rm -f tokpak.o
cc -c -I.  -O -Bstatic -I/afs/ir.stanford.edu/@sys/local/andrew/include/atk 
 -I/afs/ir.stanford.edu/@sys/local/andrew/include -I/usr/afsws/include 
 -I//usr/include/X11   tokpak.c
cc: Fatal error in iropt: Segmentation fault
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `tokpak.o'

(I split the compile line for mailing--in reality, of course, it's all
one line.)

   Again, can you send the error messages printed.

Do you want to create a messages demo folder in the directory
 /afs/ir/users/c/cwitty/.MESSAGES/amsdemo, erasing any previous
 contents AND ALL SUBDIRECTORIES recursively [no] ? yes
/usr/andrew/bin/cui: Command not found.
/afs/ir/users/c/cwitty/.MESSAGES/amsdemo is not a directory--aborting.

(Again, I split the "Do you want ..." line into three lines for
mailing.)

This fails because gendemo assumes that either you've got the
ANDREWDIR environment variable set, or you're installing in
/usr/andrew.  It would be nice if this didn't require you to set
ANDREWDIR, since (as far as I can tell) everything else in Andrew
works without ANDREWDIR being set.
