Ok, I didn't grasp that you were seeing the failures in the level3 
subdirectories.  I thought it was a general problem.

It looks like no one ever updated any of the makefiles under level3 to 
work with lwtools.  I can see where that -e is coming from now.  For 
laughs, I started copying over the level2 makefiles to replace a number of 
the offenders.  It gets a heck of lot further now.  There are still 
errors, but of a totally different nature. What I'm seeing now is likely 
due to missing include paths (I wouldn't expect the makefiles from level2 
to be a drop in).

I'll keep chipping at this as time permits (and it doesn't permit much 
nowadays).

If you want to hammer at it, start comparing the level2 and level3 
subtrees in terms of their makefiles.  You will see where the top-level 
makefile (level3 directory itself) is missing and others were never 
changed.
