I'm trying to get KerberosV up and running on a NeXT machine and ran into some  
rough times right off the bat.   I couldn't get imake to work!   I would get  
the following message:

	imake: Signal 11.  Stop.

Not very informative, eh?  Well, after many hours teeth knashing and hair  
pulling I tracked it down to a troublesome line in the Project.tmpl file.  The  
following line causes cpp to barf with a segmentation violation:

	@echo '***Ignore the warning message "Warning: Can'\''t find UNIV.ph  
failed"' @@\


The problem is with the Can'\''t.  Apperently, the version of cpp that comes  
with NeXTStep 2.1 can't <grin> handle this combination of single quotes and  
escapes.  Anyways, I replaced "Can'\''t" with "Can not" and imake started  
working.  What a world, what a world...
