You where covering all bases ... usually a good way of doing things. :-)

Had also tried that previously, but it had problems with INFODIR not being an 
absolute path or some such. INFODIR was commented out in my huskymak.cfg 
because I don't have info/texi installed, as I am on a 500M HDD.

On a hunch, I uncommented INFODIR in huskymak.cfg and fastlst compiled. Now 
all that remains is MsgEd, to get to work, then I can start testing. :-)
