Can anyone confirm if the linux server dll can be built in Ubuntu 8?

I haven't used any linux in quite a while, and even then it was only on 
university terminals.
I've just installed Ubuntu and spent a few days trying to convince the 
source makefile to work, but with no success. I would have imagined ubuntu 
would be ok with this, but either it or me are epic failing...

I've looked on the developer wiki, and googled what I can, but no one else 
seems to get the errors I do. My knowledge of makefile syntax is practically 
nonexistant, and my attempts to 'debug' it have shown only that no errors 
occur if i remove the VCPM make command (and everything after it), but 
otherwise something always seems to go wrong, I've resorted to commenting 
out individual lines to see what else screws up, as the terminal only shows 
a single (partial) line of code.

I set up the environment variables as described in the wiki, but I get a 
command not found error when i try to make, seemingly pointing to the last 
of the user environment variables (CPP_LIB) ... if i comment out where this 
is used, the next one gives an error, and so on.
As an example the following line seems to be one of those "causing" this 
error, and I have confirmed many times that this is where the gcc file is 
located.
CC=/usr/bin/gcc

Is the error something entirely different, with the variables been shown 
having nothing to do with the problem? Should I be quoting them? Am I just 
missing something? I've installed the XERCES library & includes, and thats 
the one thing that was actually straightforward about this.

I can post my makefile if desired, but I haven't changed it from the 
default, apart from setting the environment variables.

Thanks for your time.
