*** Error code 1

Stop.

>How-To-Repeat:
See Description
>Fix:
At least on this RedHat Enterprise 5.4 system, the sought-after Imake.tmpl is 
located in /usr/share/X11/config.

The /usr/lib/X11/config, that imake is invoked with, DOES NOT EXIST.

A simple work-around is to sym-link:

       ln -s /usr/share/X11/config /usr/lib/X11/

The right fix would involve invoking imake with the correct path for each 
system...
