I ran the tests on a number of platforms, mostly identified in the 
attached plat.txt file (though CentOS and Fedora don't identify teh 
distro in uname).  All BSD systems failed "make" (error output 
attached).  Of the others, only OSX 10.4 PPC was an actual failure, though 
there's a bunch of warning output in some other cases.
