Coming from Mac OS X, I'm fairly certain you simply don't want z_lp. When
I tried to get it to compile, I eventually put a big #ifndef MACOSX at
the beginning, and an #endif at the end of that file. Ugly, yes, but it
seemed to be consistent with similar code switches in zexy. :)

I'm still a beginner with makefiles, so I'm trying to work out a way of
triggering a definition on both our machines that would trigger that
#ifndef (__powerpc__ is not defined by default). Does the command "uname
-p" at the prompt give back "powerpc"?

And congratulations on your hardware find!
