Since I received several helpful replies to my previous message regarding
problems trying to get Clam up and going, let me use this to thank all of
the people who replied, and to also make the following observations:

1.  Warren Toomey's original posting stated that Clam runs under vanilla
    1.3 PC-MINIX.  Since then, the ST mods have also been posted.  For the
    record, the original posting, as modified by the ST mods, runs fine
    under vanilla 1.4a PC-MINIX.  Good job!

2.  The only real problem experienced, once I discovered (thanks to help)
    that CLIB should be set to null (i.e., either removed or set to blank),
    was that it runs out of RAM-disk while making.  So it seems that on
    an non-AT there might be a problem making it.  I have an AT with 384
    blocks used for the RAM-disk, over and above the 640K for process
    memory, and it still had this problem.  However, on an office AT with
    1024 blocks of RAM-disk it worked OK.

3.  And last -- not a bug, but "why does it work this way!!!" -- the make
    program under Minix (and probably Unix in general) is not smart enough
    to realize that if the makefile itself has been modified, it should
    recompile even though .c and .s files have not changed!!
