Danek, Paul -- Thanks for your replies. I should have also mentioned that I punted on doing a full nightly before trying to get PUFA to work.

Funny you should say that -- given my reckless tendencies, that's exactly the first thing I did. :-) And that got it further -- to where it stopped and said something about not being able to support ftp downloads yet. np -- I just downloaded the tarball manually and tried again. That got me more further, but then there was another $WS related check that made it stop... I think it said something about a directory not being writable. (BTW, I was running it as root... What... Am I NUTS? Well, see my first sentence.) So then I poked around the portion of the source where that error message is and got the impression that it was again expecting a teamware workspace. So rather than commenting out more if/thens, I thought maybe the next thing to do (but I didn't because it's something I'm clueless about -- plus it was late) is try and figure out how to make my svn workspace appear to PUFA as a teamware workspace.
