Okay --- either I am really missing something, or the folks
at CMU have some brain damaged Makefiles.

I have X11, R3, and I was trying to compile the "Andrew"
toolkit.  None of the Makefiles work correctly.  Inspection
of the Makefiles reveals hard-coded directory paths.
Am I missing something???  Do I need to edit EVERY Makefile
and correct the paths?  Or what ?????

The "Andrew Toolkit - Release 2" documentation ("README") indicates
that I can move to the "contrib" directory which is "one level above
the top of the andrew tree".  Well, it's not - its two levels.
Then they say that in this "contrib" directory, I can issue
"make AndrewMakefiles".  Nope...  The Makefile in "contrib" does
NOT have an entry "AndrewMakefiles".
Am I missing something or what???

The "README" also says that I can move to the "andrew" directory and
build Andrew in stages.  The first step is to issue "make Makefiles".
Nope again...  The hard-coded paths in the various Makefiles will
make this fail every time.

I would greatly appreciate if someone would come to my rescue and
tell me what I am doing wrong.

Thanks in advance for your help.
