OK, I changed the distro to Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS 64Bit and followed your advice to simply issue the command
"wget http://www.sbrac.org/files/build-gnuradio && chmod a+x ./build-gnuradio &&
./build-gnuradio --verbose"
and I find myself right back where I started last week and that is the constant
failure to build past this point . . .
