Although I didn't write the imake "garbage" in the zephyr release, I
can't say I'm terribly inclined to help people who insult the
developers and request complete replacements for pieces of the code
instead of fixes.
At any rate, I suspect you're using the imakefiles wrong if they
aren't working at all for you. The correct invocation, at the top of
the source tree, is:
imake -Iconfig -DTOPDIR=`pwd` -DCURDIR=
(Keep in mind that you're using a source snapshot, not a release. We
do plan to redo the build procedure using autoconf before the next
release.)
