Ah HA, thanks.

I tried that but I'm currently getting:

*** Building libabiword *** [1/1]

make  
Building AbiSuite with
[ABI_ROOT=/home/mhunter/sugar-jhbuild/source/libabiword]
make ABI_ROOT=/home/mhunter/sugar-jhbuild/source/libabiword -C src
make[1]: Entering directory
`/home/mhunter/sugar-jhbuild/source/libabiword/src'

    I can't seem to figure out which platform you are using.

I can see that message in abi_defs.mk...lo and behold there's no LINUX
in the case statement that determines the platform :(  So it falls
through to that error message and "exit 1"'s.

I tried hacking the file but I'm not having success yet

...
make[5]: Entering directory `/home/mhunter/sugar-jhbuild/source/wv'
Makefile.abi: No such file or directory

Cool, I'll keep my eyes peeled.

Thanks,
