It is necessary that PATH contains the current directory.  For example, 
make_all calls itself recursively in subdirectories with "make_all" 
instead of "./make_all".

But the tecmake script fails because of this.

I'm just curious to try IUP and don't have several hours to devote to 
debugging its build problems on a standard Linux system (Debian).  If 
you create a fresh account on a freshly-installed Linux distribution and 
try to build your tools I think you will see the problems immediately. 
  For example you'll find quickly that the Linux distributions do not 
contain a directory called "/home/t/tecgraf/lib/cd/" :-).  I think you 
can do this yourself and it will be the most efficient way to improve 
your build.  I'll attach a few error outputs anyway.
