Hello, everybody.
I've recently downloaded a copy of BB from the aalib web site and have run into difficulties compiling it from source on Slackware 10, kernel 2.6.8. "./configure" works fine (or seems to), and I have all the required libraries installed. When I type "make" I get the following output:
Code:

I've seen the program demo'd using a knoppix disk, so I doubt that all those errors are problems with the code itself. I suspect that I've got some environmental variable or somesuch set wrong, but I don't know what. Any ideas you can give me would be appreciated.
