We are having a problem setting up Majordomo with BSDI2.1.  It is the
version downloaded from the BSDI website, which says it is optimized for
BSDI.

After editing the Makefile for a POSIX system as instructed, make returns
a fatal error:
line 43: Unassociated shell command "-DHOME=\"HOME=${W_HO" 

which is a variable that is part of the POSIX-specific Wrapper
definitions.
If anyone has encountered this problem or has any ideas, we would love to
hear from you. We don't have a lot of experience here with Makefiles.

If you can help, PLEASE respond directly to both addresses in the header
above (library@bastyr.edu and tod@bastyr.edu).  Thanks!
