In the past one was able to use xmkmf -a on an Imakefile and get a program produced from provided source files and of course the Imakefile on X based systems such as IBM, DEC, or Solaris. Lately, I've found that under Tiger, Leopard, Linux, and Solaris 10, that this no longer works. The error message under Tiger, Leopard, Linux and Solaris is that the make program stops (Makefile) on MSimpleProgramTarget(program) as unexpected of file. Stop.
All of these oses have the necessary template and def files installed. I've seen references to use gmake and not use make. Unfortunately, Linux and OS X use it and is version 3.81.
Am I missing something, or is the system not set up correctly to do this?
Or is it that the UNIX community overall ignoring xmkmf and imake as a building tool?
