I never saw my message posted on my news server, only the single
reply to it, so I'm trying again.  The reply was:

^ I would lay heavy odds that if, instead of typeing make, you type
^ "dir example.c", you won't find it.  When make doesn't find
^ something it needs, it looks for a rule about how to make it.

which might be a clue, except that the file does exist, and I placed
a VPATH variable to point to them.

My original message follows with all pertinent information.
I'd appreciate some help on this...
