Now I might be getting very tired and am getting very little sleep and hence making lots of stupid mistakes.</div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 13.3333px; font-family: bookman old style,new york,times,serif; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal;">But in the meantime I had copied the executables to /usr/local/bin</div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 13.3333px; font-family: bookman old style,new york,times,serif; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal;">I tried running the make again and I ran into exactly the same original problem: most files
were not compiling.</div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 13.3333px; font-family: bookman old style,new york,times,serif; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal;">Well, at least I have the executables. I'd like to have the appropriate include files in the right place or else</div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 13.3333px; font-family: bookman old style,new york,times,serif; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal;">compiling hello world will tell me that stddef is not found. By the way there are several copies of stddef.h in there, which one do I take?</div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 13.3333px; font-family: bookman old style,new york,times,serif; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal;">I thought a good place to put the includes might be something inside /usr/local. Where do I go looking for these headers?</div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 13.3333px; font-family:
