I assume you have gnuchess 3.1+.  If so, just edit the Makefile so that it does
install gnuchessx.  For some inscrutable reason, the target that makes
gnuchessx is called "xboard" instead of "gnuchessx".  (That is, you have to say
"make xboard" to make gnuchessx.)  You might as well change that too.

If you have some older version of gnuchess, get the latest from your favorite
ftp site.
