Cleaning and reinstalling was one of the first variations I tried. No difference in behavior. I think it is must be a bug in the install script for xfig?

Thanks for the suggestion, though, -CR

I tried redoing this multiple times and variations (with -f, etc.), but to no avail.

Advice appreciated, Tx, -Chuck
