[Bug-apl] Problem Installing GNU APL 1.1

[Bob Smith]

Thanks for creating another open source version of APL.  I very much 
welcome it.

I was trying to install version 1.1 onto a 64-bit Ubuntu machine 
(actually inside a 64-bit VirtualBox running on a Win7/64 machine) and 
ran into the following.  Note that the output from 'make' is short 
because this is not the first time I ran it.

I ignored this message and continued with 'make install' and the ran 
'apl' with success, so I'm not sure how important this error message is.
