David,
That seems to be the source of all my problems. I had been compiling
from within a zshell, and I decided to switch and use csh and set up my
~/.cshrc to have nothing in it other than source /sw/bin/init.csh.
windowmaker compiled just fine once I did this. Thanks a ton for your
help!
Regards,
Paul
