    Just checked the above...the files that are being reported as
"missing" are those that are supposed to be created automagically when you
do a 'make all'...see the input/* and output/* directories for the
'template' files for them.

    If you do a 'make clean all', does it give any errors when trying
to create the files?

    The following is from the Makefile in the output directory, to
create the .out files you are missing:

%.out: %.source
        if [ -z "$$USER" ]; then USER=$$LOGNAME; fi; \
        if [ -z "$$USER" ]; then USER=`whoami`; fi; \
        if [ -z "$$USER" ]; then echo 'Cannot deduce $$USER.'; exit 1; fi;
\
        rm -f $@; \
        OBJ=`pwd`; \
        sed -e "s:_OBJWD_:$$OBJ/\.\.:g" \
            -e "s:_DLSUFFIX_:$(DLSUFFIX):g" \
            -e "s:_LIBDIR_:$(LIBDIR):g" \
            -e "s/_USER_/$$USER/g" < $< | \
        sed -e "s:output/\.\.:input/\.\.:g" > ../expected/$@

    This is what I'm suspecting failed at some point..
