Sorry. this was due to differences in the Imake configuration of X11R6
(which I used initially) and X11R5 and others.
I have sent a number of patches back to Chuck to fix the problems
mentioned over the last many days. I did not get these to him in time for
2.0.38 I am sorry to say.
This problem is easy to fix. Just add the following to makefile.h
somewhere in the top half;
MKDIRHIER = mkdirhier
