     I am trying to get TeX 3.0 up and running on an IBM RISC/6000 running
AIX 3.1. I have successfully bootstrapped tangle as far as I can tell. When
tangle runs on tex.web (tangle tex.web ctex.ch) I get an error 
   ! Value too big: 2550000. (l.3229)
   @d
      penalty(#) == mem[#+`].int {the added cost of breaking a list here}

and then it continues.
If I then run make again I get a lot errors when compliling extra.c.
The first of which is null.h not found (it is called for in texd.h).
The tex.web file seems to be correct for version 3.0.
When I look at it the last change says 3.0. The ctex.ch file says
to version 3.0. I have tried editing the make file so ctex.ch is
not used, but I get the same errors.
I have also tried a version of tex.web labeled 3.14, just gotten from
labrea.stanford.edu and I get the same problems. 

HELP.
