I’ll fix up the makefiles and see about resubmitting.
I also found that I could not just update the NitrOS9 I had pulled down a few years ago. Using whatever the steps were (hg pull, hg update?”) did update files, but then the makes would not run for a different reason. I had to pull down an entirely new copy.
Has there been any signifiant changes in the past few years to the project directory?
