Ah, it seems that the amttool-tng tool by Stanislav only provides the
the "amttool" utility, but not the "amtterm" and "gamt" programs.  This
was not clear to me when reading your bugreport.  I would like to ask a
few questions to Stanislav directly. Unfortunately, I am not able to
find his email address neither in the source code nor on the project
site. Do you happen to be in contact with him or know how to reach him?
