My "stupid error" #1: It was my first attempt at building something with Bruce's
compiler from a non-root account.  Must've screwed up the privilege on the 'sc'
pass.

My "stupid error" #2: I had "hacked" at the include files.  I restored them to
their "golden" state, and I now have shoelace running beautifully.

No more floppies.  HOO-RAY!
