This isn't working for me at all.  It seems to me that your instructions 
assume I know a lot more than I do.

make pre-install or post-install isn't working for me at all.  I just 
get errors saying that the labels don't exist.

Trying to follow the instructions regarding building the compiler, I get 
to the point where a make file is generated.  I then do
  chmod +x Makefile
  ./Makefile

And I get lots of errors that scroll by very quickly.  Starting at line 
211 I'm getting a lot of messages that say command not found.

I tried going to the examples/ncurses dir and I did
  gm2 -g -flibs=pim-coroutine -fmakeall -I. testwin -lncurses -lpth

That just gives me more, but different errors.
/tmp/ccl11dEf.a-blah-blah-blah-start.o): In function Init: undefined 
reference to _M2_pth_init
/tmp/same-blah-blah-blah): In function finish: undefined reference to 
_M2_pth_finish.

This just gets better and better.

Lucky for me I don't make my living this way.

I'll keep my day job.
