I had the same problem when compiling pl 67 under Linux with gcc 2.5.8.
In my case it turned out to be that a line in the language file was too
long (it's the one that begins with '113:swe:').  I just copied the English
line 113 and replaced 'eng' with 'swe' and deleted the offending line.
Make sure you make the change to gnuchess4-pl67/misc/gnuchess.lang and not
to /usr/lib/gnuchess.lang (or wwherever you chose to install it), otherwise
when you 'make install' again, the original will overwrite the changes.

I didn't actually look at the offending line to see if it could be
salvaged, so that might be another possibility.

I tried compiling with -DBAREBONES, but if anything pl67 seems slower than
pl62; what's a fair test for measuring gnuchess's performance.

And what's that completely unrelated, blatantly commercial README doing in
the doc directory?
