ok, thanks for this confirmation, I'll fix it to work with absolute
paths once I've sorted the bugs below:

yes I get the same..

yes this has happened because I added `-Wextended-opaque' to the
GM2_FLAGS in gm2/Make-lang.in

As a work around you could remove this option and the build should be
successful.

same bug.. as above

same bug.. as above

finish).. fixed a few and the problem appears elsewhere.. in the
regression tests. Thanks for the reports,
