This isn't necessarily directed at Gordon, since he's only working
around a "bug"....
I've *NEVER* seen anything resembling UNIX that doesn't implicitly
"-dunix" in the preprocessor and I've even seen some things that
aren't really UNIX that do so too.
If you want to use "#ifdef UNIX" instead of "#ifdef unix", you can always:
#ifdef unix
# define UNIX 1
#endif
in some global header file.
IMHO, The fix does NOT belong in the Makefile.
