I have tracked this problem down to printdesk/Makefile.  It seems that
that makefile got missed when I was doing some cleanup.  I didn't notice
because I didn't do a clean install on a system with AppleTalk.

You can get the new printdesk/Makefile at this URL:

Thanks for seeing this through.  I want to get ask many of the bugs in
1.50 squashed as I can before the 1.51 release so that they won't be
able to compete with the bugs that I introduce.  :-(

So far the changes in 1.51 fall into five categories:

1) Build fixes (like this one)

2) Greatly reduced number of setuid root programs

3) More fixes for Perl 5.8.0

4) New features: support for passthru postscript

5) Filling in missing pieces: ppr-passwd
