I have rebuilt symmetrica.  I addressed one other problem.  I saw lots
of complaints in the initial build log about printf format specifiers
being the wrong width.  A little investigation found multiple comments
in the sources about the INT type being 4 bytes.  But it was 4 bytes
on some architectures and 8 bytes on others.  I fixed the headers to
ensure that INT is always 4 bytes, which led to a different set of
printf format specifier problems.  Sigh.  I finally got the thing
patched so that all of the code agrees that INT is 4 bytes.

Good luck. :-)
