A few weeks ago, I helped a user compile a program that needed
to use matlab's libmat.  The solution involved adding "add matlab"
to her .environment file, and compiling with -L/mit/mablat/lib -lmat .

A few days ago, the user came back and said that her program no
longer compiled.  Investigation revealed that the matlab locker
had been changed recently, and that the matlab_v5.2 locker does
not have a "lib" directory.

Could you please create the symlink
   /mit/matlab_v5.2/lib -> arch/@sys/lib
and also create and populate lib directories for the various platforms?

(The lib directories seem to be only symlinks up into "distrib" 
and "share".  An initial glance suggests that tar'ing up 5.1's
lib directories an untar'ing them into 5.2's tree might be all
that's required to make the shift.)


Thank you,
 Jacob Morzinski
