Hmm.   I haven't checked the docs (in the last 20 years) but it appears 
that RMA is case sensitive, and the distributed root.a is faulty.  The 
unresolved reference was to F$EXIT, while OS9Defs.a defines F$Exit.  
That problem solved, view.l refers to 'keywait' and 'SetSig', and I need 
to figure out where those are supposed to come from.
