[Sorry for the delayed reply; I went out of town]

Thanks for posting your patches, Steve.

Actually, I already got that far by the time I received your stuff.  I've
found that it takes a lot more than just modifying the Makefiles to get the
MK to build outside of the Mach development environment.

My goal is to provide a patch kit that will allow the PMAX version of the
FTPable MK to compile under Ultrix using Gnu Make.  So far I've had to
modify several makefiles, write a few shell scripts, and reverse-engineer
one CMU library routine (fopenp(), needed by config).

I'll make my changes available when I get it working.  I'm interested in
hearing from anyone else working on something similar.
