Perhaps I just screwed up the previous patch last night. The build
completed this time but I did have to make the following additional
patch:

-bash-3.00$ svn diff src/sman/Makefile.pamphlet

I think the build is ok now and I can start AXIOMsys. But I
do get an error when I try hyperdoc:

-bash-3.00$ axiom

HyperDoc does not start but otherwise Axiom is ok.

Any ideas on why ht.db is not found?

I haven't run HyperDoc recently from the build-improvements
branch. Have you tested this and do you expect it to work?

I will now try to build from wh-sandbox which I believe includes
a number of significant changes to hyperdoc which are not yet
brought into build-improvements.
