Hi John,

if the make ran to completion I'd assume that all required packages were
installed.  The tests require libpth-dev, you could try installing gm2
and setting your path to the installed location and running the dejagnu
tests  (although in theory this shouldn't be necessary - you do seem to
be getting a huge number of failures).

I'm currently working on the shared library linking, and modifying it
to coexist with libtool.

regards,
Gaius
