Thanks for the pointer to the wiki, Curt.  I suppose I should have tried
there next.  I was going by the instructions in the INSTALL file.

I tried to point configure to the right directories, but I wasn't sure
of the syntax and was getting all kinds of rude errors from configure.

All is well (except for weather stuff, but that's not important now).

Many thanks for your help!
