Specifically, this section of the default makefile:

macros.c: standard.mac
	perl macros.pl

was changed to (# is comment char)

#macros.c: standard.mac
#	perl macros.pl

to prevent make from complaining. (couldn't find standard.mac, didn't 
know how to make it, wouldn't be able to run perl if it could, etc.)
As is explained in comments preceding the rule, macros.c is supplied
with the distribution. Hope this clarifies things. You may post
my portion of this thread on your web space if you think it would
be helpful to anyone.

	regards, tom
