That is my post, and Mark Miesfeld assisted me with patching the code to 
compile / operate successfully.

How could I assist you?

The issue was being able to build/compile/install ooRexx without root 
permissions to the box. One must modify the path ooRexx will write the PID file 
to to be within the user's home directory... aka 
jailed environment.

Perhaps would it be possible to modify the make process to specify a custom 
path if it detects that prefix was specified? That seems a logical association 
to me. If prefix, then tack the prefix onto 
the beginning of the PID file filespec.

Blessings,
