scsh needing scsh to compile?

The .../doc/install.txt says that if I need a bit of hand-holding, I
can write to this list.  Well, I do.  :-)  As I'm not subscribed to the
list, I'd appreciate it if answers were sent or cc'd to me.

I'm trying to compile scsh on a Linux 2.0.0 box.  The ./configure didn't
have any problems, but the make dies miserably because a series of scsh
commands are being piped to "scsh -s" -- which doesn't exist yet!  Even
using "make libdir=`pwd`" results in the following mess:

>  gcc -c -o main.o -DDEFAULT_IMAGE_NAME=\"/tmp/scsh-0.4.2/scsh/scsh.image\" \
>      -I./cig -I./scsh/regexp -g -O ./main.c
>  gcc -c -I./cig -I./scsh/regexp -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -g -O -o unix.o unix.c
>  (echo ,bench; \
>   echo ,load-package big-scheme; echo ,open big-scheme; \
>   echo ,load link/generate-c-header.scm; \
>   echo \(make-c-header-file \"scheme48.h\" \
>                             \"./vm/arch.scm\" \"./vm/data.scm\"\)) \
>  | scsh -s-
>  /bin/sh: scsh: command not found
>  make: *** [scheme48.h] Error 127

Is there some microscsh which I must install in order to bootstrap the
compilation?  A find(1) did not produce anything named "scsh" besides the
subdirectory.

I've installed a lot of programs, but I've never had anything fail so
quickly.  I know I must be missing some basic beginning step... :-)



Luck++;
Phil
