On Mach 2.5 systems, the filesystem resolves the name @sys to something like vax_mach, sun3_mach, pmax_mach, ... depending on what machine type you are running on. This works both in AFS (which started it) and on local file systems. If you are not running Mach 2.5 and are always on the same machine type, you can just edit it out of the Makefiles, or Makeconf files (like where there are different object or release areas) or you can make a symlink called @sys to whatever is appropriate. If you are not running Mach 2.5 and are trying to deal with common sources on multiple machine types, then you have a problem. Mary Thompson
